  I could be glib here and say Mary didn't wait for Joesph! Christains have to revent this view they have of sex being some how impure. For the secular world it's up there with islams views on women's clothing. When two people remarry does this mean their marriage somehow less because they were not virgins?

  Oy. I think that they were commenting not on his choice to abstain from sex in general but the complete and utter abstention from romantic human contact. I'll come out and admit from the start that I have no problem whatsoever with premarital sex and in no way see it as a negative thing. Certainly he's entitled to do whatever he chooses, this is America and it's his right; however, people can certainly make their own appraisals of his choices as well. He went on a national television show and volunteered this information. This is not the crux of who he is. That would reduce his entirety down to the fact that he doesn't have much interest in girls "that way."

  One thing I've noticed is that people attract people who are like them. Guys who sleep around do not get nice girls. Guys like Bruce will find a girl who respects and love them for them, not for their money or popularity. As they say, you reap what you sow...

  Christians will always be ridiculed but stay the course Bruce, for you are showing other young men how to be a real man in every sense of the word, in a very fallen world. We need more Daniels, standing in their faith and resisting the Babylonian culture all around us. May God be glorified through you.

  Jackson's and Seacrest's snide remarks say more about them than anything else. I guess Jackson and Seacrest felt the need to make the remarks because of their jealousy over meeting someone that is willing to make a moral stand. Don't let them bother you, Bruce. Your future wife will be getting quite a MAN.
