Erinn_the_bamf answered Thursday June 21 2007, 2:41 pm: Technically it is a sin. It's a sin to "lust" and masturbation is lust. However, that is just what the bible says. It's better to masturbate then to run off and have sex and end up pregnant at an early age. [ Erinn_the_bamf's advice column | Ask Erinn_the_bamf A Question ]

kaydence answered Thursday June 21 2007, 12:22 pm: In all reality what person does not maturbate? Really, I'm pretty sure your not going to go to hell for doing it. I dont think you should be stressed out about the little things in life.
Brandi_S answered Thursday June 21 2007, 12:20 pm: From the religious stand point it is. Because like it has been said before me, it is a sin to do lustful things before marriage.
Will you go to Hell if you masturbate? I very highly doubt that, in a world full of murderers, pedophiles, and rapists.
From the Christian belief, I cannot judge, but I would be willing to guess that one would be forgiven the sin of self love...
Personally, I just don't see how it could be realistically considered a sin. And I'm a Christian.
davettexO answered Thursday June 21 2007, 11:55 am: i'm sorry but i strongly disagree.
masturbation is a sin.
this is because 99.9% of masturbation is based on lust.. and lust is also a sin.
this is a big debate and i don't believe asking on a site like this is really gonna get you anywhere..
you're probably going to get tons of opinions but what you need are full answers.
pray about it & look to the bible, or ask your pastor.
good luck. [ davettexO's advice column | Ask davettexO A Question ]
skankyfrankie answered Thursday June 21 2007, 11:48 am: Well, I'm Catholic, and I'll give that version of masturbation (or what I remember). Basically, masturbation is a sin because you take pleasure from it, and you aren't supposed to like, have sex or get pleasure until you're married... and only then when you're trying to make babies.
I also know that some religions view it as a sin because its wasting sperm, which means killing unmade babies.
