"ChristiaNet" all over the important issues of 2007: Kissing is OK.
Contact: ChristiaNet, Inc., 281-465-9533

MEDIA ADVISORY, July 25 /Christian Newswire/ -- ChristiaNet.com, the world's largest Christian portal with twelve million monthly page loads, asked its readers to respond to a recent poll on kissing while dating. Many of the participants agreed that it is acceptable but it should be disciplined. Christian dating should be governed by what God's word says about behavior. The couple should discuss guidelines early on in the relationship and make a commitment to not cross those boundaries. One of the participants said, "One of the fruits of the Holy Spirit is self-control." It is important to realize that your body is not your own. It is God's temple and should be treated accordingly.

Out of 271 respondents, 134 answered yes, that kissing is acceptable while dating. Seventy-one voted no, and 66 were unsure. Many of the respondents who felt that it was not acceptable made a point that it is a temptation and can lead to sin. One participant stated, "The Word of God says we should not make any provision for the flesh." Christian dating behavior should include decent and proper behavior. The world is watching and many could be won just by the Godly example of living a life honoring Him.

Comments of voters who were unsure felt that the commitment of the relationship should help to define whether kissing is acceptable behavior during Christian dating. However, many of the participants also emphasized the importance of not allowing the affection to get out of hand. The couple needs to be honest with each other and if they do not agree then they need to take time out and pray about whether they are right for each other.

6. Felching?
And by that I mean the classic S. Clay Wilson kind, not the watered-down, namby-pamby kind so prevalent today. ;-)

5. Normally i'd be down on this for not being in the religion section
But it makes a welcome distraction from Impeachment and Sheehan talk.

20. That and "Your mind is not yours either."
I bet if someone asked one of these nuts that they'd reply that it's God's too.

13. I mean I can't even believe those motherfuckers would write that BS.
Seriously, that's the most un-American thing I've ever seen written, of course your own fucking body is yours! Goddamnit that just has pushed it was too fucking far.

18. Religion is inherently un-democratic, and hence un-American.

22. These assholes who run these fundie churches are really brainwashing these folks.
The faint dividing line between these nuts and a full blown cult is even less noticeable.

27. Well, usually even churches allowed their members some individuality...
but what individuality is there when you don't own yourself?

21. A well-fired glance across the room could create a temptation and lead to sin
Maybe these freaks should just stay home. What's next, a debate about hand-holding?

:crazy;

24. There is no debate about hand-holding.
Only in marriage, your own kids, or a boy scout crossing the road..that's it!
