is masturbating a sin?

The reason churches consider it sinful is becuase they see it as covetous, so therfore God didn't create masturbation someone selfish did.

I thought God created everything....

And Masturbation is instinctual, not learned...when I was young, no one taught me how to play with my pickle...i just tried it, loved it, and thought I was the only person in he whole world who did it.... 😆

Therefore no human "created it"....it was always there in the back of our minds...the question is....who put it there? 😉

According to Catholicism, masturbation is a sin. Any sexual action that does not lead to an opportunity of creation of a human life and is outside the union of marriage is considered a sin. In Catholicism, sex is viewed as a sacred act between husband and a wife. Anything that belittles this act to merely personal pleasure is abusing the very purpose of sex.

Now my personal opinion. Masturbation provides an excellent opportunity to get to know yourself better sexually. By experimenting you' re able to get more in tune with your sexual response. Once you discover what works for you, you can articulate or show your partner what turns you on and your confidence as a lover will increase.

Masturbation is not only normal, it offers some very specific health benefits.

Masturbation is simply fun. It feels terrific. Who can resist a regular jolt of orgasmic bliss?

i know im not supposed to have lustful thoughts but sometimes i cant help myself. is this sin forgiveable?

discuss.

I guess the real question is..........

Do bad things happen to you after you masturbate?

Do you do it, and you get a flat tire?

Do you do it, and then somebody you know dies?

Do you do it, and for whatever reason your whole day or week becomes shot to hell?

Do you feel like some ominous force is punishing you for doing it?

Actually that's wrong, there is evidence to suggest that masturbation makes sex and social life better, and I am against marriage, so if it ruins a marriage, then great! Less trapped unhappy couples!

I think you're more ignorant if you don't believe that sex is the cornerstone of any relationship. Even a celibate one revolves around sex; or not having it as the case entails..

I'm surprised why some people still decide to get married. I mean, why get married?

I've never been against the institution of marriage. I think that it's quite nice how people commit to each other in such a way. If there wasn't such a major divorce rate then I'd be more for it than I am but in the cases that marriage works, I think it's a great thing.

The divorce rate is high because marriages don't work. The worst relationships are those that are maratal, seriously. Marriage is about as useful as a solar powered torch.

That's just not true, if you were to look at relationships that were never confirmed by marriage I'm sure you'd see just as many failing, it's not the marriage that makes a relationship fail. There's just no way of recording such failures out of marriages; as they do not have to be ended through the courts.

I'm surprised why the thread didn't end by these two posts.

I agree very mucg with storm. The human structural governement of our health arbitration (aka The Docs.) have come to the conclusion that Masturbation is very much a normal thing, let alone a healthy part of a teenagers life. Where I can see where the church may think it is a sin, is where Christ said "To even think lustfully of another person, is like to commit adultry with them." But then again, this could be another one of his hyperbolies, and not to be taken serious. I hope it's the ladder...
