I'm Etalie, I'm currently studying for my AS levels and will (hopefully) be posting revision entries on psychology and sociology.
I previously uploaded posts on GCSE revision. If it helps you then great! But I'm not an expert on anything AT ALL so don't rely on everything I post.
(Also, I'm not taking credit for any of the pictures or info here, it's all off google images, notes from BBC bitesize and CGP revision guides, textbooks etc)

(NB - GCSE: italics in the science subjects are things that are only in paper 2!)

RELIGION AND LIFE 

 3 - MARRIAGE AND THE FAMILY 

 Sex outside marriage - 

 Christian attitudes - 

  • Most believe sex outside marriage is wrong 
  • God gave sex for procreation of children who should be brought up in Christian family - should only take place within marriage 
  • Bible - sex outside marriage is sinful 
  • Catechism - pre-marital sex is wrong 
  • All Christians against adultery - breaks wedding vows, banned by Ten Commandments and condemned by Jesus 
  • Some accept cohabitation before marriage, but only in a long-term relationship leading to marriage 
Jewish attitudes - 
  • Believe sex outside marriage is wrong 
  • Torah - forbids sex before marriage 
  • Talmud - sex should only take place in marriage 
  • Sex is for procreation of children - should be raised in a family where mother and father are married 
  • Adultery banned in Ten Commandments, breaks marriage contract, would harm family (should not be harmed - where children learn about Judaism and how to live a Jewish life) 
  • Progressive Jews (some) - accept cohabitation before marriage, but only in a long-term relationship leading to marriage
