It has been said that
Masturbation is a sin because a person consents in their own heart to take sexual gratification from impure thoughts. It is sinful to indulge in the sexual pleasure that is derived from the satisfaction of using one's imagination to FIXATE upon obscene images, or obscene actions, or forbidden sex. Lustfully fixating upon genitals, or sexual acts, is idolatry. This is called: the worship of obscenities. This is the sin of those addicted to pornography. That's often a "guy" thing. Alternatively, taking delight in the lust of another, or consummating a fantasy of forbidden sexual romance, is the sin of adultery in the heart. God does not love a human action, according to our way of thinking it can be said that God hates it. These actions are sins. They are often as hateful to men as they are to God! What are some things that God does not love? What are some things that, according to our human way of speaking, we might say that God hates??
Now my words
Now 98% males masturbate, why must we would live by such great denial, I like to hear back from some great Christian master- debaters out there.
I think you are right when it comes to the "orthodox" christian view about masturbation. My devout catholic friend said once to me that masturbation is sinful when you either idolize yourself or think sexual fantasties while you are doing the act. Otherwise it is not a sin to masturbate among other things.
Since the vast majority of us on this forum arent christians, we dont give a shit what "orthodox" christians think about a masturbation, or homosexual sex or transvestism etc. Considering that the new testament requires wives to be submissive to their husbands.

Q. What do you call several people debating with each other?
