masterbation and porn
#10059828 - 03/28/09 12:33 PM (15 years, 3 days ago) |

So, I've been having some conflicting thoughts lately.
I am feeling just awesome about my whole life, where it's headed and everything. I am strengthening my realtionship with God but I'm running into some struggles as far as sexual things go.
Like, according to the Bible, what does God feel about masterbation? Does he see it as sin?
Also, I've been cutting back on watching porn, because I feel in some way that it might be sin.
In christian view, how does masterbation and watching porn fair?? All input appreciated and encouraged. Thanks

I'm pretty sure the Christian god encourages all of the above.

i was always told masturbation was a mortal sin (catholic) but then it differed from one priest to another... so i dunno
imo wanking it is essential, especially if your going to try and stay abstinent like the church wants you to... as to porn im trying to stop watching it just cause it takes such fucked up stuff to get me turned on now, i can only really get off with rough sex now

Watching porn would be viewed as a sin, masturbation hard to say. Any sexual thought (involving another person) entertained outside of marriage would be considered a sin.

Jesus would say go for it, he was a hippie. God woujld stone you.
The only reason god hates sex though, is because Jesus got caught taking it up the butt one night his junior year.
Why not read the bible and inturperate the fairy tail yourself, rather then being a massive sheep. If you gotta wank, beat that meat.

According to the Bible, God sees it as sin.
Nobody is perfect, for me personally, I don't do it as much as I used to. It's normal. I think it's not good to OVERDUE it, and cutting back is a good idea. Everything in moderation eh?
I'm not a big fan of pornography, I feel bad for the women in it, EXCEPT Sasha Grey (she likes it)
I think it's ignorant to live your life by a set of rules set by an organization. Everybody does it, people that say they never do it are lying.
Everybody does something with ill-intentions, you must be able forgive yourself for these actions.
I reccomend reading "The Book on the taboo against knowing who you are", by Alan Watts.

I don't ever recall reading it in old testament. Though you could describe it as lust which would be a deadly sin. However I define lust as going to extremes for sexual satisfaction. Most modern theologies however don't really care too much if you rub one out every now and again; considering its actually beneficial for your health and mental state (eases stress and releases serotonin).

You just make sure you got a tissue so your seed won't touch the ground. Then God won't be offended. Unless you're one of those hippie loving liberals who thinks the bible shouldn't be taken literally.

Dude just crank on it when you need to. If God really gave you all these sexual urges and was like, "Okay, but no doing ANYTHING until marriage" he'd be a fucking asshole. That's pretty much just torture.
Fuck what the church says. What do you think God would want? Does beating the ole meat hurt anybody? Hell no.

I think porn entertains lust and it isn't good. Masturbation in itself is probably OK. Personally, I don't really like porn, and if I watch it, I don't really feel good. It's probably something that's between you and God as to whether it's harmful or not. Like, if your attitude about women is to view them as objects for sex (strong example of lust), porn is very likely bad for you. I can't say I know God's will, but that's just some of my thoughts on what it might be. Talk to Him about it

i feel truly sad for any person who subjects them self to live within the restraints of a mythical omnipotent being who was made up by retarded men a long ass time ago to steal money and freedom from the even more retarded general population of the time. THERE IS NO GOD, GOD IS A SECURITY BLANKET FOR THOSE WHO AREN'T STRONG ENOUGH TO DEAL WITH SHIT ON THEIR OWN. sure, god, and every single dead relative(that isn't in hell, that is)are in heaven, watching your every move. seriously? what a fucking joke! everyone fucks up, some are strong enough to learn from them and become better for it, others keep fucking up. either way there is no crazy bearded dude in the sky waiting to pass judgment upon your soul. you live here, on earth, and chances are when you die, that's it. and if any belief is correct, based upon the simple observation of the way things work here on earth, you will be recycled, you;ll be a fertilizer for some new form of life to grow,and if we're really lucky we'll come back as some other form of life. but to think that there is a(and it must be huge, and fucking overpopulated) place like heaven, or even hell awaiting us is the dumbest fucking thing I've heard in my life! do what will make you and those around you happy, if you're being a good person to get into heaven, then you're probably gonna fail! its easy, live your life the best you can, be decent, have fun, and for fucks sake, quit living in fear of something that doesn't exist!
and just for fuck's sake, if there is a god, it's definitely nothing like the image we have of him. if god, the creator of everything is real, he's gotta be a really cool guy, and definitely wont give a shit about you smackin around your wiener! if you wanna beat it, then beat it. no harm no foul.

i've heard that if you don't use it, you lose it, so you better beat off all you can OP.
plus it says in the OT that a man who had his testicles crushed was no longer allowed to enter God's temple, so if you lose your dick god will hate you and you'll be banned from church.

religious people make me sick, for the most part all they do is pass their own judgment on people( totally against the wishes of jesus)and have been, historically, the most fucked up( devious, perverted, lying, hypocritical, thieving, judgmental, and most importantly - WRONG!)DOUCHE-BAGS on the face of the planet for centuries. it would be a much better( safer, more peaceful, higher quality of living, and generally happier world) at this point in human history if religion was done away with. granted when Christianity/Muslim/Judaism were invented they were needed,and have done good for the people(education(catholics- helped starving people, ect.) but for the last 200 years the religious system has failed and today is totally outdated and in a general seance,bad for humanity( fucked up discrimination, wars and fighting progress such as civil issues, not to mention science)
time to do away with an antiquated, and fucked up way of thinking people. take it upon your selves to make the right decisions in your life because it's the right thing to do, not because of some fucking made up story like going to heaven. the day religions are gone from the world's society( soon i hope) will be the day we evolve to the next level! who knows, maybe we'll even learn how to use some more of that jell-o like shit siting in the hard round thing between your ears!

IMO, believe whatever the fuck you want, just dont tell me about it.
As far as masturbation and porn, yes, theyre both sins in the Catholic faith. As for the rest, idk.

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be. For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see, there will be an answer. let it be. Let it be, let it be, .....

There is a God, indeed. The reason we humans thirst, is because there is water. The reason we hunger, is because there is food. If you walk into a forest and notice a watch on the ground, do you think that watch came from no where? Of course not. It came from man. Man created watches etc, and God created man.
There is no way that God does not exist. He is as real as you are. Look around you. How can all of this be chance? HOW CAN ALL OF THIS BE CHANCE?? Look at the precision of design in everything. Look at how magnificant everything is. How do you explain prayer? Prayer works wonders. I have never met a person who prays to God regularly, and BELIEVES IN HIM 100%, who does not have a strong, firm grounding and strength and zest for life.
Here's some food for thought.
WE now know that the sun is running out of energy. One day, it will completely burn out. You can use an analogy of the sun, to a tank of gas in a car. IF you put gas in the tank and use up the energy, it will eventually run out. But who put the gas in? BINGO, Man. Apply this same thing to the sun. DO you believe the sun literally popped out of nowhere? (just BOOM, a big huge flaming ball of fire, that does not move from it's position at all, and just happens to be the source of all life and creates the mean for existence on planet earth.) No. THat's like saying the gas just came from nowhere. It did not just come from no where...IT WAS CREATED.
It is said that people who have very strong oppositions to the reality of their being a God, usually have had very bad relationships with their fathers. Just thought I throw that out there....
If you have read any of the Bible, such as chapters like the book of Acts, Job, Proverbs, and Psalms...and you take to heart what the scriptures say, you would know There is a God, wonderful, magnificant, awesome and loving God who created you, me and everyone else.
I understand that you already have solidified your belief that he is not real. That is fine. To each his own. But for me, I have realized, that I cannot possibly be the best person I can be, without a relationship with God. Accepting God into my life, has been the greatest decision I ever made in my life hands down.

I think it's pretty ignorant with no proof to say he exists. We get hungry because we need energy, not because there is food, we get thirsty because we sweat, and our body is mostly made up of water.
Your "God" is just as a fantasy as an atheists belief is to nonexistance of a god.
No one really knows, and you can live your life with restraints, that is fine. But you do drugs, doing drugs is looked down upon in the Bible, and by other members of the Church. Masturbation is healthy. Go ahead, stop masturbating, go get blue balls, see if we care.

why do you refer to god as he? If god were anything it would be energy. Ive heard of male and female energies but i dont think theyre talking about penii and vaginas.

and just for fuck's sake, if there is a god, it's definitely nothing like the image we have of him. if god, the creator of everything is real, he's gotta be a really cool guy, and definitely wont give a shit about you smackin around your wiener! if you wanna beat it, then beat it. no harm no foul.
There is a God, indeed. The reason we humans thirst, is because there is water. The reason we hunger, is because there is food. If you walk into a forest and notice a watch on the ground, do you think that watch came from no where? Of course not. It came from man. Man created watches etc, and God created man.
There is no way that God does not exist. He is as real as you are. Look around you. How can all of this be chance? HOW CAN ALL OF THIS BE CHANCE?? Look at the precision of design in everything. Look at how magnificant everything is. How do you explain prayer? Prayer works wonders. I have never met a person who prays to God regularly, and BELIEVES IN HIM 100%, who does not have a strong, firm grounding and strength and zest for life.
Here's some food for thought.
WE now know that the sun is running out of energy. One day, it will completely burn out. You can use an analogy of the sun, to a tank of gas in a car. IF you put gas in the tank and use up the energy, it will eventually run out. But who put the gas in? BINGO, Man. Apply this same thing to the sun. DO you believe the sun literally popped out of nowhere? (just BOOM, a big huge flaming ball of fire, that does not move from it's position at all, and just happens to be the source of all life and creates the mean for existence on planet earth.) No. THat's like saying the gas just came from nowhere. It did not just come from no where...IT WAS CREATED.
It is said that people who have very strong oppositions to the reality of their being a God, usually have had very bad relationships with their fathers. Just thought I throw that out there....
If you have read any of the Bible, such as chapters like the book of Acts, Job, Proverbs, and Psalms...and you take to heart what the scriptures say, you would know There is a God, wonderful, magnificant, awesome and loving God who created you, me and everyone else.
I understand that you already have solidified your belief that he is not real. That is fine. To each his own. But for me, I have realized, that I cannot possibly be the best person I can be, without a relationship with God. Accepting God into my life, has been the greatest decision I ever made in my life hands down.

The point of view was not needed here.
The OP is a christian, you atheist's always have to come in and belittle us like your better?
Alot of people on this site make atheists look stupid and immature. And sadly, most of them are.
To me it sounds like your all bored and lonely. Stay out of threads with people of any faith in it unless you have something useful to say. Have respect for your fellow man.
I have friends who are athiest. They respect my beliefs and I respect theirs. We debate often in a mature matter.
Not once would they ever act in the tone of people on this site. You all are destroying your own cause.

Prayer easy. Think of it like taking a placebo.
Wiki Def: "The placebo effect is a medical phenomenon where the results of a medical treatment are affected by the patient's ideas about how effective the treatment is. The term is especially used when a patient responds dramatically to a physiologically inactive treatment. Inactive treatments used to induce the placebo effect are called placebos; inert "sugar" pills and sham surgeries are typical examples."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placebo
Basically view it as a state of mind if you believe it works then you imagine that it is working. And Religion is the sugar pill.
The sun didn't form out of no where a bunch of gasses and particles slowly clumped together and started burning as the result of gravity pulling them together. Maybe it was the friction that started the sun Burning.
On that note just jerk it already LOL.

Lust, as you may know, is a cardinal sin, meaning that while it may not always be destructive in and of itself, it is to be avoided because of the many and manifold sins it often leads to; adultery, fornication, sexual assault, abortion, to name a few. Since masturbation and pornography both increase lust, they can only be lustful acts themselves, and so are also to be avoided.

Eph 5:3 (NIV) But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people
Matt 5:28-29 (NIV) [Jesus:] "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell."
1Th 4:2-8 (NIV) For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God... For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.
Ro 6:13 (NIV) Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness

You make a very good point. It is a natural urge, but in other ways if you walked in on someone watching porn it wouldn't look natural at all. But rather disturbing. I think anyone can tell the difference after you have sex, and after you masturbate.
After sex - you feel great, happy and energized. After porn - not so great, you loose your spiritually energy,
It is an endless road, it is the satisfying of an addiction that can never be satisfied. It can be very hard to quit, and the first step is realizing why it is wrong.
If you believe in a heaven, then you must assume that things of this nature should not be present in this place. It is best to fight these urges now, rather than later.

I think the good lord can forgive some porn use. Honestly......its healthy to relieve some sexual tension. however If you jack off to another man's wife, thats probably not good. If you jack off to child porn.....probably not good. If you jack off to some random chick......who ya harming?
I do see where the bible is going with this whole sex notion though. Look at all the guys who are on catch a predator. Obviously this is an extreme, but their victimless masturbation could have lead to some serious shit. The human place is one of desire, and to feed fuel into the fire wont make it stop. Its all about what fire your feeding....ya know
