So...how bout those purity rings?

Question

do you have to get a purity ring from an actual place that makes them...or can you get your own ring from lets say tiffany's and engrave it and get it blessed?

is there a difference?

and by the way, how many of you wear one...your thoughts on it...

Answer 1

I have one! I did a purity class at a church & did the little ceremony where you put on all white & you walk down the aisle with your parent(s). I love it, I think you should get one & get it blessed or even find someone or a church who does these functions.

Answer 2

If I got one it would turn my finger green.

Answer 3

Hottest fetishwear ever.

Answer 4

I don't wear them, nor do I support them.

s*x is a regular part of life, accept it.

Anyone who says they will not have s*x till marriage probably will anyway.

A healthy relationship should include s*x before marriage, it is important to know the person well, including sexually.

EDIT

You asked what I thought about them, and I told you.

How is that not answering your question?

Answer 5

One of the worst crimes inflicted on humanity by christians is that s*x makes people less pure. It's a ridiculous and harmful concept.

Answer 6

I have a ring that I bought from my church bookstore that simply says "purity." You don't have to get a ring blessed for it to symbolize purity. Whatever ring you choose to wear to symbolize that you are remaining pure till marriage is perfectly fine. Though the public eye sees it, it is mainly a reminder to my boyfriend and me that we are waiting for marriage. =)

Answer 7

for all its worth, you can make a purity ring out of a plastic straw.

Answer 8

The Bible says nothing against s*x before marriage. That was just introduced by the Catholics after a bit.

Answer 9

You are welcome to purchase one from any number of purity ring sites, or you can make your own as you described.

I never wore one and am married now, but my 16 year old stepdaughter wears one.

Answer 10

I got mine at a Christian bookstore but where you get it isn't really important. A purity ring is a symbol of a covenant between you and God. Let Him know of your commitment and ask Him to hold you to it. It doesn't need to be blessed by anyone but God. God be with you in your choice.

Answer 11

I wear purity chain mail.

Answer 12

I got mine from a bubble gum machine. He said he loved me. Then he done run off with my cousin/half sister. That darn brother o'mine.

Answer 13

I am so glad I am not atheist.

A purity ring is a promise to The Lord.  It is between you and Him.  I say get a nice ring, you are valuable to Him.
