Any Christians or people of other religions, what are your feelings on masturbat!
Question: Any Christians or people of other religions, what are your feelings on masturbation!?
I've noticed a lot of people on here discussing masturbation, and I'm not sure what I think of it myself as I am a Christian, and believe in staying a virgin until marriage!. So, what do other Christians on here think!? Is masturbation sinful, or from a non religious point of view does it count as sex!? BTW i'm not judging anyone here and dnt wanna start an argument, whatever anyone believes I will respect!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I'm a Christian!. Masturbation is totally NORMAL!. What Jesus tells us about is lusting after other people!.!.!.that is adultury (wether married or not married yet)!. So our Pastor's (who talk about this sort of thing ALL the time!) counsel us to not lust while masturbating!. So no porn, no thinking of the hottie you saw down the street!.!.!.just concentrating on the feeling of it, not picturing other people!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
Masturbation is never specifically mentioned in the Bible, unless you count the verse about not spilling your seed!.
My youth pastor once gave the analysis that God gave you the gift of pleasure and wants you to experience it, but the sinful thoughts that accompany masturbation are what makes it a sin!. Lust is one of the seven deadlies, after all!.
So!.!.!.yeah!. I agree with him!. I believe the act itself is not a sin, but lustful thoughts are sinful!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

whether other people say its okay or not, its irrelavant as you should be dependent on what God thinks
there is a lot of passages in the bible regarding sexual immorality and how it is wrong
it says that your as a christian your body is a temple filled with the holy spirit - we shouldnt be immoral in anyway because it is disrespectful to our bodies and to God
its a lot to consider and not what we want to hear as selfish humans, but we shouldnt conform to the sinfullness of this world
i challenge you to not masturbate
i hope this helpsWww@Answer-Health@Com

Everybody does it, no matter what their sex or religion, even if they say that they don't, since it is a normal, harmless and physiological activity!. The problem is many religions thrive by instilling unnecessary guilt about this normal behaviour!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The local R/C priest ad vise's this is the devil trying to tempt you ! and when asked what to do when temptation is too much the reply was the cold shower is the answer !.coming through puberty temptation was that bad that now when i'm out in the rain i get a HARD--ON!?!?!?!?!? !. if you're of the female type which as a guess you is then flicking the BEAN don't hurt anyone but yourself if you do it to HARD !!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
I'm a Christian and yes masturbation is a sin!. I masturbate though, I don't agree with it being a sin, and I feel that it shouldn't count as sex!. It's up to the person though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
