What Do You Think Of Pre-Marital Intimacy And/Or Touching?
q_q_:
I wouldn't say it's "banned".
In the Torah it's a sin and I think it has an earthly punishment - capital punishment, just as breaking shabbat does. But capital punishment requires a temple and sanhedrin - (since I think the sanhedrin sits in the (courtyard of?) the temple)..
And witnesses, and a warning to the person, and that they agree.. So many conditions.. And a court that does more than one in x(70?) years is considered bloodthirsty.
If any gentiles in israel are noachides, then it is even more unlikely to happen.
It's a nice idea to make a basic law, like not marrying a gentile, into the law in israel. But I don't think there is a torah mandate to do so. Adding a moderate but reasonable punishment that can be applied, like prison. So as to deter people from sinning.

Yes, it does make a man aroused if the woman is attractive.

Yes but seeing an attractive can also makes a man aroused. So should we require all women to stay in private?
No one can honestly tell you that in today's world a handshake will lead to sexual activity.

And can anyone tell me one place in the Torah where it says Shomer Negiah.

Are you aroused when a girl makes eye contact and gives you a nice smile?

good post Archie. Im not saying it is not a holy thing for Yacov and other tzadikim to not touch girls , i am just saying that the Torah does not prohibit it. And therefore should not be banned
