Poll... do you think it is immoral to sleep in the same house with a MOS?

i went to this camping thing with some friends... it was a church thing, but i went just for the camping aspect of it. anyways, it rained, they were wusses, so everybody packed up and went to this guy's house instead. they were making arragements for the girls to sleep in another house... i asked my friend why, and she said it was because it's immoral for guys and girls to sleep in the same house. i was stunned.... i mean i may be an atheist infidel, but i didn't know i was this out of touch with what is considered moral and what isn't. in talking to other people there, i got the impression that it was about half/half... some didn't care, some thought it was immoral. just curious what the rest of the world thinks....

note: this is just sleeping! no gangbangs or anything like that....

LMAO!
Religion at its best.

No, it's not immoral.

I was thinking the same thing too. Don't want any spontaneous gangbangs or something. 😕
 
It really depends on the church you attend, but many Christians (and many of my close friends) do consider it inappropriate to sleep in the same room if you're not family or married.
 
..IMHO, that's a bit ridiculous. By that logic..if my sister has a friend over, I have to leave the house? Eh, no.
 
my gf's sister goes to a church where if you want to date, the person has to be from the same church, the "elders" have to approve, they must "group date" first and until the elders approve, then they can date....and at anytime, they can just tell the couple to break up.

I attended a church like that for a year - big fans of courtship.
 
lol...I think I'd laugh at them if any of my friends thought that way. Granted, I was raised in a decently liberal area, and go/went to the Univ. of Mich, but still.

I really wouldn't think it was all bad if members of the opposite sex slept in the same room. big whoop.
 
"Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Matt. 5:27

Perhaps they take seriously the biblical laws regarding modesty? If they stay in the same house then they will be using the same bathrooms and the same toilets and may see each other in immodest clothing (nighties, boxers etc). The most probable outcome of men seeing women dressed in an immodest way is the sin of lust. This is probably what they are trying to avoid by having men and women sleep in seperate houses.

I wouldn't be able to sleep with girls in the same house/room. I'd be too self conscious and afraid that I would fart in my sleep or something.

Then in the morning when all the guys wake up with morning woodies, mine would be the smallest and I would hang my head in shame -- never able to look any of the girls in the eyes...

Your "friends" are seriously out of touch w/reality. No sex before marriage I can respect; not accept, but I can respect it. But not sleeping in the same HOUSE? That's crazy. What about sitting at the same table eating? What happens if your elbows TOUCH? :Q Does the girl get pregnant?

Damn, I slipped...sorry. Anyway, get some new friends.
MichaelD, I love you.

What kind of church is that? I want to know so I'll be able to avoid them at all costs.

FWIW, my parents were into reading books and stuff on "courtship" (whatever they defined that to be) a while back, but no new parental regulations ever came of it (possibly because they know that I'm too much of a computer geek, introvert, or whatever, to ever have a chance at having a serious relationship with a girl, so they needn't worry).

Quality that link with: "... dress codes for extremely ultra-conservative insecure Christians" - saying that all Christians hold these views terribly misrepresents reality. My mom's a pretty conservative Christian herself, and she doesn't have any problems wearing (for example) a pair of slacks, or a sleeveless blouse.
