Well, what if they decided they were going off the diet - who are you to make that decision for them? Would you tell them - "No, you're still too fat."? What if that person was thinner than you? What if they were anorexic and they were ALWAYS on a diet - which you have to admit is a perfect analogy for fundamentalist approach to sex?
If a person, who starves themselves wants me to make doughnuts for them - damn, I'll make them some doughnuts.

I don't know. If I had a strong feeling she may regret it later, I just wouldn't go through with it.

So, knowing they are fundamentalist Christians, would you at least pause and say something like "are you sure you want to do this? I don't want to contribute to you doing something that jeopardizes your values and that you will come to regret..."
Why should I pause and ask? Her proposition shows clearly enough what is her opinion about "values" in question. If she will regret it later, well tough shit. I also have my regrets.
Not necessarily. People all the time are tempted to do things that they don't believe are right. Just like a person who's on a diet may slip up, a person who believes in saving sex for marriage may slip up too. It's not at all unheard of.
True, if she regrets it later then "tough sh*t".... for her. That's why I said this is would be about having concern for a fellow human being.

A xtian fundamentalist who "wants to romp"????
Have you MET very many of these people? Most of the ones in their teens and 20's still believe that gawd will fry them in hell forever if they do more than kiss and hug before marriage! I personally know 5 couples who brag that they were virgins on their wedding night - all married within the last 5 years.
(The two churches I'm thinking of shun movies, television, radio and internet. The people spend nearly all of their time at work or with church groups.)
The only fundies I know of who would "want to romp" are the pastors who think it's ok to make a pass at any female that catches his eye.
A fundie who "wants to romp" will not remain a fundie very long - - they'll either leave the faith or commit suicide in shame. Probably the latter.
But would I do it with a fundamentalist who didn't know I was an atheist? Hell no. Once they found out, all interaction would be OVER. They would run back to the church to confess their horrible sin and to pray for the horrible evil atheist who seduced them.

Others mistakes aren't my concern. Also people who believe in no sex before marriage are kinda like Yeti for me. They exist only in hearsay.

My concern ends on freedom of choice. Possibility of person feeling guilt about doing something that said person wasn't forced to do concern me not.

I'm glad. And also amused by implied disapproval.

Its not "implied." It's definitely blatant. I thought I made that clear on my first post.

You wound me so. Now I almost regret saying that I would use devout xtian moment of weakness to sate my lust.
