go to church and get a license to have sex before marriage...only in Sweden?

Imagine this, you send your kids to a confirmation camp through the Swedish church, and they come home with a certificate that says they are now "qualified to have sex."  (despite the fact that some of the kids at the camp were below the age of legally having sex, which is 15.

They even got a little medal.  This really just happened!

Any alarm bells ringing here??

1.  Sweden lets RFSU, the swedish association for sexuality education, have way too much freedom and power, while actively repressing the freedom of people who would give a more conservative approach to youth and pregnancy.

In this case, the priest who should have been sitting in while an RFSU related worker was teaching the kids about "love and sexuality" was told to not be present so as to not make the kids shy to speak and ask questions in this sensitive issue.

In other words, RFSU can teach whatever trash they wanted, successfully removing any religious aspect.

2.  Abstinance, which will always beat condom use in it's percentage of accidental pregnancies, has seemingly fallen off the map. And shouldn't that actually be the Biblical advice to these kids instead?

Here's the top result when i searched on google, what does the bible say about sex before marriage:

"There are numerous Scriptures that declare sex before marriage to be a sin (Acts 15:20;1 Corinthians 5:1;6:13,18;10:8;2 Corinthians 12:21;Galatians 5:19;Ephesians 5:3;Colossians 3:5;1 Thessalonians 4:3;Jude 7). The Bible promotes complete abstinence before marriage. Sex between a husband and his wife is the only form of sexual relations of which God approves (Hebrews 13:4)"


3.  What is this rfsu guy doing teaching at a church confirmation camp anyway?

Systematic Theology, Chapter 39

*Just a reminder that this study of Wayne Grudem's book, Systematic Theology, is not by any means me teaching, but rather a simple sum...
