I have taken a strict vow of celibacy....like my father.....and his father before him.  Nevertheless, it could present a dilemma. Let's say an asteroid is about to hit earth and we have about two minutes to live. Some hot young girl cruises up beside me and says, "Erik, I don't want to die a virgin." What to do? What to do?  I just hope it doesn't happen. Not sure what I would do. If it were Vegas, no such dilemma would exist. You do it, then discover that the asteroid threat was a false alarm. That's always what happens...

Is that a problem for you 🤔 If it is, have a pray to St. Pelagia why not... She is your patron, and It's her day today 👍 Men came to arrest her for her faith... She was afraid they might rape her, so she threw herself to her death off the roof, rather than risk it.

I tried, I really tried to watch it butt I just threw up a bit in my mouth and had to stop. They are so judgemental, simplistic, unrealistic and really 'naff'! Some Christian dude carrying on about people's love and sex life as though he owns it and has some control over it because of what his view of God's word is! To be honest it shits me to tears!

I know a lot more than what I care to share on a public message forum, & so does this guy with "the droney voice" & "holier than thou" manner. I even met this guy in person, very recently. That is why he preaches this topic.

Besides, although he's Catholic, he's not Italian (I'm into Italians).

Basically to protect her purity is the gist of it. basically those who would rather die than to have their purity shattered. What a terrible worldview it is, that one considers a person who has sex or a person who is raped, even, to be somehow 'less pure' than they would otherwise be. Who would look at a rape victim and say "your rapist did a terrible thing, but you should accept that you're a lesser person than you were now." Disgusting and sad. There is a true story about a plane crash in the Andes in 1972. Some of the survivors of the crash faced with starvation in the frozen Andes resorted to cannibalism of the people who died in the initial impact. My immediate thoughts on hearing the story is that I would rather not survive by cannibalism. If I am going to starve then I suppose I will have to starve. There are some things I just won't do, even on the threat of death. I am not telling anyone else what they should do in those circumstances. I don't know what to tell them. I just know what I would not do.

She was afraid they might rape her, so she threw herself to her death off the roof, rather than risk it. Sounds more as if she were just looking for an excuse to throw herself off a roof anyway, and here these fellows came along and gave her a perfect one. I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that the high priests of a death cult put such a ban on suicide, though; if they didn't, the church would have ended up with no followers years ago as they'd have all been anxious to follow the example of their chief martyr. As for sexual temptation, these days the only thing I pray for is more of it.
