and dont say that it messes up relationships
atheists have way lower rates of divorce than Christians
we dont get married unless were committed
haha and dont tell me abstinence works better than birth control
texas and alaska, the only two states who teach abstinence only, have the highest rates of teen pregnancy
umm… also maybe explain why people think that teenagers are too young
Religion% have been divorced
Jews30%
Born-again Christians27%
Other Christians24%
Atheists, Agnostics21%

Actually, the relationship one is the only one I've ever seen. People become to absorbed into the fantasy of porn where they push away their spouse.
For premarital sex, maybe too young for a kid, only one I can think of.

How about the fact that no form of birth control is 100% effective. So, premarital sex has a higher likelihood of STDs and pregnancy.
EDIT: In regards to pornography, it gives you a skewed idea of what sex is all about. In other words, it's about satiating a need, not about giving back to the person. It places too much emphasis on the body, often the models are the impossible standards, which most people are not.

Do a quick Google search on "internet porn addiction". You'll find a lot of information, much from scientific sources, on the problems it causes.

"atheists have way lower rates of divorce than Christians" reference? of course not… what was I thinking.
How about any addiction is bad for you

Lots. There are muslim arguments, hindu arguments, jewish arguments…. Christianity isn't the only superstitious cult on the planet, you know.

not really, just wear protection and pornography only if you've reached a certain level of maturity.

Sexual relationships and acts can be a very very very emotional experience. Over multiple partners this emotion is diluted.
To maximize emotional outcomes, it is best to have only one partners… for life. (married or otherwise).

Sharing your body with someone else in the most intimate of ways should be done with the understanding that for one, the other, or both partners, the act elicits an emotional response as much as it may a climactic response.
Nothing wrong with porn as long as it doesn't become obsessive, or in the case of a couple enjoying porn, both partners are completely comfortable with it and it adds to the experience.
Be careful.

Yes.
I'm sure there are Jewish, Muslim and many, many other arguments against it.

I used to go to conservative churches that teach that abstinence crap, and I learned that the leaders of these churches actually crack jokes about 30 and 40 year-old virgins behind their backs. Now I just send my Christian friends to the site below which debunks the whole thing against premarital sex in the Bible. It covers same-sex lifestyles too. I hope it helps you.
