I cannot understand...I mean what is wrong with it? Everyone does it! If you think it is embarrassing to talk about it and you deny it,grow up.

Masturbation is completely natural, studies have shown that it is actually healthy. It's considered a sin in religion because it's pleasure and apparantly that's bad :roll:

Well sexuality is something that is supposed to be saved for marriage, and you're not supposed to get sexual pleasure from yourself-- that is the teaching.

And also you're not allowed to get pleasure from your wife if she isn't there. (I.E thinking about her to do stuff)

The sin of Onan is "spilling your seed"; in other words, masturbating instead of making baby Christians to stuff the ranks :)

Let me hit you with some knowledge...

If it wasn't for people thinking pleasuring yourself was a terrible thing to do and should not be done at all, we wouldn't have Kellogg's Corn Flakes...

Yet, there seriously wouldn't be Kellogg's Corn Flakes if people didn't think it was terrible. To put a name to the people it would be the Kellogg's brothers...

Because back in 1232, people had too much stuff to do, and if one person discovered self pleasure, the farm would die. Plus the Church has always hated sex, which is fine and logical, coming from a celibate, old guy. Logical.

most of the accounts in the bible I've read it's because god specifically told somebody to make a child, and they went and did something stupid when specifically told by god not to. Unless god specifically tells you to stop masterbating and start a family I don't see much of a reason to stop.

It's because the religions you're looking at is dumb. Check out a cooler one! In Buddha Dharma(Buddhism), people don't think there is anything wrong with it(maybe some section of it does, but not the ones I know), unless you start to get controlled by lust.

Because when Onan spilled his seed on the ground and God killed him. But he was being forced to have sex with his sister-in-law or something like that. Sometime it is interperated as jerking off, but it could also be he didn't want to impreganent his dead brother's sister. The story goes something like that, I forgot the names.

Masturbation is not a sin. It's normal and many people do it.
