Is it wrong to disagree with God but still obey?

[RolandThompsonGunner]

And what does the behavior of “another guy” have to do with it? You’re saying that if another guy already slept with her then you’re somehow entitled to do the same because it’s not fair to you otherwise? That’s even more gross. You should be striving to behave better than the other guy, not to act like he did.

It’s got really gross transactional vibes. Like, “I don’t want to overpay here, that other guy got it at a discount.”

@MNathaniel is on point.

I think the OP gets the hint… At least I hope.

Some other good things to read might include:

Love and Responsibility (JPII)
Three to Get Married (Fulton Sheen)
The major encyclicals on marriage and sexuality (Arcanum, Casti Connubii, Humanae Vitae, etc.)
Various recent articles by Prof. Esolen on courtship and manhood (like this one: Is Traditional Courtship Really "Unrealistic" Today? … list of articles in Crisis here: Anthony Esolen - Crisis Magazine)
Others?

To the original question, when I was a teen, I disagreed mightily with my curfew. I obeyed it because being grounded was terrible.
