She told me if she ever saw them in my possession that she would severely punish me and all that bull. She believes that sex is sacred and it should only be shared between two people in the bonds of marriage but I don't believe that. So I just don't want any crap from my parents. Thats the only thing thats keeping me from doing it.
In my opinion, you shouldn't let the beliefs of others affect you, even if they are your parents. You should, however, respect thier beliefs but don't allow them to force you into making an unsafe desicion like unprotected sex, unless of course you believe in that as well. I would just tell them straight up that you feel differently about the subject, and don't think you should have to be persecuted for your own beliefs. Besides, according to christianity, all sin can be forgivin anyways. (not saying its a sin, just looking at it from a religous perspective)

Now, if you do believe in doing as your parents say, then disregaurd all of that. I am all for sticking to what YOU truely believe in.
