Re: Play Sports

"Similarly, Antis resort to banning all child sex instead of working to create a safer environment where children can have sex with reduced harms involved. This is just lazy planning, and these evil Neo-Christians would rather just prohibit a basic human instinct instead of putting any effort into solving a problem. "

Agreed.

Since one of the major harms of children having sex is the child picking and getting stuck with a spouse who is unsuitable/less advantageous than some other spouse, one traditional way of working to create the safer environment for children having sex is arranged marriage.

Which, however, has its own risks. Like the parents getting the choice of the spouse wrong.

"Many, or event most things in life can have very bad consequences if not handled responsibly. What if a child plays sports? Does gymnastics? They could fall and break their leg, or worse. What if they take too much cough medicine for their cold? Or what if their parent accidentally gives them too much Ridilan for their A.D.D.? The consequences could be astronomical. Same with driving in a car, or bike riding. Or what if a child goes over to a friend's house, and something bad happens to them? What if you're a student in China and some psycho comes into your school and shoots all the kids dead? This type of list just goes on and on. "

Yes. You have to deal with small but significant rists of disastrous harm.

You also have to weigh them against modest or large risks of less serious but still important harm.

"In this case, we're talking about banning one of the most basic and important human instincts: The sex drive. Research shows that certain mammals, including the ones closest to us, will go insane if they don't get sex, and the truth is we humans are probably the most sensitive of the mammal species. "

It is natural that there is a strong and basic drive to have sex, because the potential consequences of lack of sex are serious. However, there are serious potential consequences of having sex at the wrong time or with wrong partners - and strong drives to avoid them.
