“The morality of a culture inevitably finds its roots in the God or god(s) of that culture. We imitate who or what we worship. The cultures where God’s people had been (Egypt) and were going (Canaan) had sexual practices that were not in keeping with the character and morality of the God of Israel and thus were not to be shared in by God’s people.”

“As I get further from college, I know more and more Christian friends who have sex outside of marriage, live with their boyfriends, or act in any number of ways outside of the “rules.” I want to call them back to faithfulness, but I’m tempted to wonder, “Does it really matter? Does following the rules really make sense anymore in their situation?” I realize firsthand the kind of rationalization we risk when we wrongly conceptualize sexuality as just a bunch of restrictions. As Christians, we understand God’s commands and intentions for how we live in the context of the gospel that has set us free—not separate from it or in opposition to it.” – Liuan Huska from blog article “Staying Faithful; How Our Sex Lives Matter

WHEN THIS IS THE PREVAILING ATTITUDE ABOUT “CHOICE”
“Here’s the complicated reality in which we live: All life is not equal. That’s a difficult thing for liberals like me to talk about, lest we wind up looking like death-panel-loving, kill-your-grandma-and-your-precious-baby storm troopers. Yet a fetus can be a human life without having the same rights as the woman in whose body it resides. She’s the boss. Her life and what is right for her circumstances and her health should automatically trump the rights of the non-autonomous entity inside of her. Always.
……..And I would put the life of a mother over the life of a fetus every single time — even if I still need to acknowledge my conviction that the fetus is indeed a life. A life worth sacrificing.”
