There isn't "Thou shall not masturbate" commandment but there is "Thou shall not commit adultery" which is the 7th commandment.

ok, c'mon!
hi, well, i'm sorry for stay posting in da boys' locker, but I need to tell u, masturbation is a sin. but really, I think so If nobody is perfect, so masturbation is normal, it's not a terrible sin like kill someone, but it's a little sin, but it's not no problem, millions of people masturbate, so what's the problem? I don't masturbate, but I think so If a lot of boys do it, you can do it too. |

It is, according to my teacher at Sunday School a couple years ago.
According to God, masturbation is "sex to one's self". The act of sexual intercourse is SUPPOSED to be done only to bring new life into the world. Therefore, the use contraception and masturbation are sins because they encourage sexual pleasure without the product of a child. |

One time my mom forced me go to this Jesus camp and in there there was a lot of talk about making big decisions...
Masturbation (mentioned by the person who was directing the camp) is a great sin as said by God (However, the sad things is, I don't believe in God). I really asked what is wrong with Masturbation... the guy said, "Masturbation is touching one's self or the other in an un-pure way for selfish pleasures. It is not sanitary and something someone should do." I don't believe all that crap. But if I did, I would think about it and say, "almost everything we do is sinning. So there is really NO way to go to heaven. Even if you repent for them you're still going to sin unconsciously and consciously. So it's pretty useless. And if you're going to be "pure and good" just to go to heaven, it's considered sinning because you're doing good for a selfish reason. You do good because it's what the faith is not to get a reward." |

I'd like to know where in the Bible God forbids masturbation. |

Well According to religious freaks.. it is a sin although its not mentioned any where in the Bible or the commandment [ from what I have read]. My personal opinion on masturbation is that its normal and everyone sooner or later does it cuz people get horny.. its a fact =D. I think that you shouldnt worry about it being a sin because just remember this.. During the Jesus/Prophets age People would marry their siblings,Parents,Uncles,Aunts,ETC.. so no religious freak should be looking down on something so natural as Masturbation is +D

^It is not mentioned literally*.. but if you are going to think about it.. What do you mean Jesus/prophet age? Yeah sure they married their siblings. But that was the old testament. In the coming of Jesus.. in the New Testament .. he had to render the old laws old.
*Many people do interpret the Bible in literal ways .. which I think is crap. Interpretations of the Bible can only be done by professionals, I think. And as for me, I would stick in to what I believe in. And that is, masturbation is normal. |

Interpretations of the Bible can only be done by professionals, I think. And as for me, I would stick in to what I believe in. And that is, masturbation is normal. Well what I mean by Jesus/Prophet age is basically around the First Century. Well from what I was taught marrying your family was never a law- and I didnt say it was, I said it was the practices of that era. Well isnt the bible for Spiritual people so it can be interpreted by anyone and in many ways. And as for me, I think that we will never truly know what the Bible says because it has been edited and revised so many times that who knows if it is even the words of jesus christ. And I agree with you lols Masturbation is normal as I stated in my last post... /sorry if My post didnt relate to the topic... Feel free to delete it if necessary |

masturbation is pleasuring yourself, you might also be pleased when you get a good gift for your birthday, or go to a theme park. pleasuring yourself is not a sin, so i don't think masturbation is either.
