In our epoch, the use of condoms is rampant as it gives protection over pleasure, protection from pregnancy, protection from sexually transmitted disease, but does it really protects us?
False sense of security, this is what I think condoms can give us all, having us blind on the bigger picture that as Christians and moral people, this is unethical and unbiblical. Is it enough to say that we can’t do anything as this is what our era has come to offer? Remember that our thoughts become our actions and our actions become our habits, habits become our destiny. Not only in the moral and Christianity aspect can a condom be criticized but also by the fact that quality is a question to be asked, will you willingly rely your future in a box worth not less than P10? Is it worth it? Having you future traded for an hour of pleasure? We, specially students that don’t have work, who relies fully on their parents money should think twice as this may ruin you future and thus having you ending up pregnant and having you to have the baby aborted or worst to be a broke minor lady taking care of your kids in the house waiting in vain for your minor boyfriend hoping that he would come home bringing money or food perhaps! This is not the future that anyone of us wishes to have, but yet it is a possibility that we can’t afford to take for granted as it can happen if we don’t treat situations maturely and responsibly.
That I give you is only on the Christianity and moral views of this matter, but have you ever thought of the biological issues this immorality can confer? That if a female subsequently commits abortion, she will have a delicate pregnancy and worst, having to put her baby’s life in danger as her baby might slip from her cervix as a side effect from her past abortion.
These are only few of the many thoughts we should come to think before committing any of these acts. Well I have nothing against pleasure but is it worth risking our future? Think about it..
We students have been given the full blow of the entire correct decision making, the effect of our decisions now to our future, and all kinds of education, yet still the majority amongst us chooses to learn the hard way. But it’s not too late; we can make a difference, by starting in ourselves.
