K I need to know for my own personal reasons if, all these things i'm about to list, are sins or not. and if they are sins where in the bible can they be found.

! Smoking Pot
@ Masturbating
# Drinking alchohol (under the age of 21)
$ Giving/Recieving oral sex
% Looking or watching "explicit materials"

I'd really like to know, so please help me. Thanks sooo much.
p.s im 16f if that helps.

This is just my personal opinion, but, it doesn't really matter if the Bible lists them as a sin or not. For different Christians, the definition of sin is different. Some say that masturbation is a sin, and some say it isn't. Some say that drinking alcohol is a sin, but what about all the monks and nuns who drink? What about Jesus? He drank! (Actually, I think it's ABUSING alcohol that's the sin, not drinking it)

And anything is bad if you think it's bad. I look at "explicit materials" quite a bit, and I see nothing wrong with it. It's something to do when I'm bored. But if I was looking at them and thinking that it was wrong, I would feel like I was doing something bad. Same thing for masturbation. I do it because I'm an animal, and I have sexual needs, but I have enough self respect not to give myself up to somebody that I don't love. As for oral sex, if it is consenual and protection is used then it's all right.

Smoking pot is very illegal and can do great physical harm to you. In the US, drinking under 21 is also illegal and if abused can be harmful. Really those are the only things on the list that can get you into any trouble.
