Just out of interest, because I never cared to search through an old book for permission for sexual things, is there an actual unambiguous prohibition of masturbation in the bible? Or is this another one of those things where they take vaguely intersecting single verses from disparate books and use them to construct a patchwork interpretation based on whatever's convenient at the time?

You can't fool us with emotes!

If I'm not mistaken most religions condone masturbation and sex for mere pleasure because it doesn't contribute to procreate children... If this is true, then I'm fucked if any god turns out to be right, meh I think everybody is, even the so called Christians have sex for fun, they can't tell me they actually only banged to have kids.

I thought I heard something about not spilling seed upon the ground. (That's why we have tissue .. oh and dogs.)

When I turned 15 my Aunt and Uncle got me a masturbation devotional for my birthday. Not kidding. The most horrifying birthday gift ever, complete with bible verses and lines to write about when I masturbated and how. The trick apparently is that you can masturbate but you cannot imagine sex while you're doing it. Which I always though would defeat the purpose of masturbation. Anyways, yea, this was another episode of "the more you know" about Losty. I'm going to hide behind my hands now so you can't look at me.

There's something deeply perverse there; you'd probably spend more time thinking about masturbation when given a gift like that than if they just let you go at it. They seriously wanted you to write about it?

Sounds like something you'd go to Area 69 for, nowadays.

The sad part is, at that time, it only served to make the idea of masturbation even creepier and to increase the shame I felt about thinking about sex so much.

The happy part is, all that is in my past now

Xtians really know how to put the 'naughty' into sex. Bless them.

Because you know,

Every sperm is is sacred
Every sperm is good.
Every sperm is needed
In your neighborhood.

Let the heathens spill them
On the dusty ground.
God will strike them down for
Each sperm that can't be found.

Hahaha

Is that an original Natachan poem?
