If Masturbation is a sin, does that mean God wants Men to get Prostate Cancer?
Its proven that routine masturbation cleans the prostate lowering the chances of getting the cancer. God says its wrong to do right? Then he wants us to get cancer?

It's not just masturbation, it's frequent ejaculation in general. The same cancer-reducing benefits can be gained through normal sex too.

Anything done out of lust is a sin... but God is ready and willing to forgive us if we turn from our sinful desires. Show me a scientific paper that confirms "If men do not masturbate, they will get prostate cancer" and I will answer the second part of your question.

It would make sense if he really just wants you to be fruitful and multiply. You aren't making any kids masturbating so you wouldn't be much good to him.

NO. It is only sin when abused or done for recreation.

I must then have one of the cleanest Prostates ever! YAY ME! Who says sin doesn't pay off?

Awesome question basement cat. And if abortion is against God, shouldn't that mean that all women who have miscarriages go to Hell? Same thing with the 50 percent of pregnancies that end in an uncontrollable abortion.
37 :
where does it say that masturbation is a sin? it doesn't. it says how to clean yourself after such an emission, but it says the same for a menstrual period, which cannot possibly be a sin as it cannot be helped. also, my mother is studying through a Christian college, and she learned that in the old testament people believed that the entire baby was in sperm, not just half, so this lie that it is a sin probably stemmed from the idea that you were spreading tiny babies on the ground to die. if you didn't masturbate, your body would expel the fluids against your will anyway, so go ahead and jerk it! if i'm wrong, and it is a sin, God will forgive you anyway. we are all sinners, and we can't stop sinning. that's why Jesus died. so that our sins don't matter in God's eyes; Jesus paid off our debts for us.

This is a common misconception. The "sin of Onan" was not masturbation or "spilling his seed on the ground" per se. It was that he refused to obey the cultural convention of making his dead brother's wife pregnant. It is a little lengthy to explain, but take it as read that in Biblical times, if your brother died, you (as a man) were responsible for his wife and any children he had. This included an obligation to father children on what was now, effectively, your wife. Onan did not wish to do this and "pulled out", thus "spilling his seed...". From a theological standpoint, Onan's sin was not the "spilling" but self love and a lack of obedience to cultural norms of the time.

NO YES NO

Where does God say it's a sin??? God gave us the ability to masturbate as a method of satisfying a desire that comes naturally. Just think how teen pregnancies would be through the roof if we couldn't masturbate; not to mention the non-consensual sex incidents.

I don't have my notes HANDY but a person in the bible was killed for wasting his seed, though not a matter by this fellows own hand but, it does help show why God put marriage so important. The customs of old though, shepherds, who watched over sheep, were considered unclean. I shouldn't have to explain that much more if you have a imagination. Till they went through the purification process, but when they went back out they were unclean, again.

It's not a sin. It's totally natural. Don't stress so much. Just be a good person, that's all you need to do. My friend got all caught up in a Christian cult and didn't touch his member for over 2 years. He had so many problems from it. The worst, and I tell you this to help prove the point, they had to put electrodes inside his bum to shock parts from the inside to help him. You don't want to be in that situation. I'm a Christian. But I'm so sick of Christians telling other Christians to abstain from some of the best stuff life has to offer. The spend all their life fighting natural urges. Life is a gift from god to be used, not looked at. How would you feel if you gave someone an awesome gift and they never used it? That's a slap to the face. I have a friend who is 27. She has never had a boyfriend because the church has told her sex and boys are wrong. So now she's 27, never had a boyfriend, and has no idea what it takes to have a good relationship. She can barely deal with friends because she's never been in a relationship and therefore doesn't understand compromise or how to express her feelings. It has greatly retarded her social and love life. Besides, all that particular stuff in the bible was written by men hundreds of years after Christ died. It was used in the Dark Ages as a means to solidify the ravaged parts of Europe after the fall of the western Roman empire and the slew of plague that followed. It's not god's word, it a man's.

I'm religious but I don't believe it's a sin. The bible says not to eat pork. Bacon is great, so are ribs. Pork loin is completely healthy. Back when the bible was written, before refridgeration, pork would spoil so quickly that if people ate it, they would become very sick. I think that the bible was trying to prevent people from becoming sick so it warned the people not to eat it. I don't know why masturbation would be a sin... but in my opinion, telling an older child/teen that these natural feelings they have are sins, does more harm than good and causes problems later in life in relationships. Times change and certain parts of the bible can grow with the times too.

The Devil does this so that it will be harder to remain faith full to god . But thats why he made us eject during the night so when we wake up were hard.
