Having children out of wed-lock isn't good for the child. It robs them of the parents God intended for them to have. Also, if you're not married or just living together your child doesn't have a father. Maybe, a biological father, but not a true father, one they could look up to.
Living together is as much of a sin as just having sex. So, any "christian" out there that thinks other wise needs to think again that they are doing the right thing and you are still going to hell.

You're against two people getting to know each other before spending their lives together, huh? Yay Divorce, huh??
And as a product of an unmarried couple. It means nothing to me. Either way my father is still a dead-beat. I don't see why, if he was around, I should not respect him because he didn't take advantage of some random legal crap.
Parenting has nothing to do with marrying or not. Tell it to the Slacks, who killed their daughter even tough they were married.
If one is a good father, it is a good father. Marrying has nothing to do with that, but to what extent they´re able to took up responsibility. And marriage isn´t the solution either. It´s just ONE WAY to have sex, but the problems associated with it don´t disappear magically if you sign papers. Having sex is not a sin, remember.
Apart from that, following your logic, kids whose parent is a widow/er, would be living in sin. Or those whose parents are living far away from them, because they´re sick in hospital, for example.
If God intended you to have parents, he would have invented a system not to make sure the paternity of just one of them. And believe me, many women, for whatever reason, do have to bring up their kids alone. Or just those legal tutors, who are not sinners, believe me.
Um, so if God is perfect, and he intends for a child to have a specific set of parents, why doesn't he just prevent pregnancy if the wrong pair of folk have sex before marriage?
So only marriage makes fathers? Your kid can't look up to you if you're not married to its mum, no matter how involved you are in its life and how many things you do together?
C'mon, I thought God was supposed to be perfect. What'd he go and make a flawed Creation like this for?
can someone please tell me why on earth so many people are attracted to this sort of ultra-conservative life-style crap? how can you possibly feel happy if you constantly have to repress so much in your life? A male and a female living together in the same building is a sin against god, their creator [??]. i'm getting really creeped out by people who impose this shit on themselves in the name of religion.
Morons like you shouldn't be allowed to breed -ever.
For the record, I was born in wedlock, and I had a father that nobody in their right mind would want. I couldn't look up to him, 'cos he did fuck -all to earn my respect. Fear and loathing, yes. Respect- no freakin' way.
So haul yourself out of the Bronze Age, dickhead, and get a grip on reality. Who knows? Six months of good sex, and you might be fit to join the human race!
Having children out of wed-lock isn't good for the child.
I was born out of wedlock, and it hasn't done me any harm.
It robs them of the parents God intended for them to have.
I have the same parents I had BEFORE they were married.
Also, if you're not married or just living together your child doesn't have a father. Maybe, a biological father, but not a true father, one they could look up to.
You can't look up to your father because he isn't married to your mother? What the fuck?

Lick my ass.
You are stretching the definition of parenting and father too much. And if you have sex out of wedlock and provided that the father doesn´t abandon the child(which happens less and less often), which "parents" are they robbing him or her?. Mother, at least, they have. And what if they´re giving them up for adoption?. Second, regarding the "true father", what the hell what you mean?, a paper doesn´t change your character or the problems associated to marriage.
My only son was born of "wed-lock". He is healthy and happy. I still live with his mother but this doesn´t matter, because I will be his father until the day I die. I dress him for school and help with the homework. I have a job, help the comunity and I don´t drink or use drugs. Not a too bad example at all.
Confused?
