"Fornonormativity" is a coinage from the Greek πορνεία (porneia), which in the New Testament refers to sexual immorality in general, for example, [[Adultery|adultery]], pre-marital sex, [[Homosexuality|homosexuality]], [[Lesbianism|lesbianism]], [[Bestiality|intercourse with animals]]. The set of sexual behaviors prohibited in the Bible intersects but is not identical to the set of behaviors that American fornonormativity seeks to elevate and protect. [[Incest]], for example, remains outside at present.

Fornonormativity also supports consequent behaviors such as [[Abortion on demand|abortion-on-demand]], which can be traced back to the normativization of pre-marital sex. The American fornonormative culture also created a large demand for easy divorce. Fornonormativity is an important part of an adherent individual's susceptibility to the notion that a homosexually immoral relationship can be sanctified as [[Same-sex marriage|marriage]].

To see an example of fornonormativity in action, consider the sitcom. In most modern situation comedies, among other entertainment programs, there's a courtship-marriage sequence that has been drastically rearranged. Sex is expected long before any possibility of marriage. [[Cohabitation]] comes before marriage in a manner and with a frequency that sets this sequence forth as the norm.

Another example is [[sex education]]. When students attend a certain sex ed course and report feeling encouraged, nudged, to become non-maritally sexually active, a fornonormative force is in evidence.

Yet another example is the [[Homosexual rights advocacy|LGBT campaign]], which has built so much upon the foundation of fornonormativity that it has started methodically ruining the lives and businesses of people who act out time-honored moral thought. Fornonormativity has thus entered a beginning phase of true [[oppression]].

Furthermore, the UN's appointment of an LGBT czar backed by worldwide enforcement powers shows fornonormativity personified, incarnate on a titanic scale. Since sexual immorality occupies a central place in the domain of sin, fornonormativity is a centrally antichristian force. Therefore, the rise of this Earth-encircling enormity, a worldwide fornonormative power vested in one person, invites comparison with the apocalyptic concept of [[Antichrist|the Antichrist]].
