Catholic Church on Premarital Sex

"Chastity is a positive force for good and the essential virtue needed to live one's sexuality responsibly and appropriately, given each person's unique state in life." That's what the Catholic Church teaches at least. It is considered a mortal sin to have sexual intercourse before you are married. Sex is something that is procreative and unitive, for the married couple. Teenagers should not be engaging in sexual activity outside of the sacred bond of marriage. I agree with the Catholic Church. Teenagers do not understand the concept of marital unity and procreativity, hence harsh break-ups and unwanted pregnancies.
