Lust is a sin; existing is not.:|

So what defines lust? Having sexual desires over a women (for a guy) right? Something every guy does.

No. Lust is defined several ways in the dictionary:

1.intense sexual desire or appetite.

2.uncontrolled or illicit sexual desire or appetite; lecherousness.

3.a passionate or overmastering desire or craving (usually fol. by for): a lust for power.

4.ardent enthusiasm; zest; relish: an enviable lust for life.

5.Obsolete. a.pleasure or delight. b.desire; inclination; wish. -verb (used without object)

6.to have intense sexual desire.

7.to have a yearning or desire; have a strong or excessive craving (often fol. by for or after).

Definitions 2 and 3 agree most with the Bible's.

"Uncontrolled" is subjective by virtue of this thread. Some people consider masturbation excessive or lust and consequently, a sin. Some don't.

"Uncontrolled" would be where you just keep going and going--the way I was masturbating would be uncontrolled; repeatedly cheating on your spouse is uncontrolled, and so on and so on.

You realise there are spikes and dips in everyone's "schedule" right? Especially at and around puberty. Anyway that's YOUR definition. Like I said earlier some people consider any masturbation "uncontrolled"

If it was my son I'd probably crack a joke. Like "I can get ya some better porn if you want."

ive never been caught doing that..ive been caught having sex though, numerous times by different people haha

but if i walked in on my kid id just laugh and walk out and ask if he wanted my porn

For any of you that still don't believe it is prohibited by the bible, you can just ask it to a religious person like a father. It is considered a sin.Thiago26792

i don't know who you are, but you should not go about makign claims like this.

i am a devout christian but i do not find anywhere that it is considered a sin.

HOWEVER, lust is a sin. (and you can't really masturbate without it)

remember though, all sins are equal.

i guarantee you there are more sins people do on a regular basis than masturbation and i dont like your "holier than thou" attitude. did you know that its a sin to think yourself better than others?

Or mabye when you have no morals, like me.

When you grow up, and work say a 7 day straight run at your job, trust me, its the only stress reliever when your wife is on the "28 days later" cycle. At 15 I can believe you dont do it, as for anyone over 18 that says they dont theyre full of shi tzu.

As for the day youll catch your kid (I have a 10 yr old), I know its not too far off from those "30 min showers" its just best not to go near it...

[QUOTE="Faylette"]

[QUOTE="TheSystemLord1"]in the bible a man (forget the name) "spilled his seed upon the Earth" and God struck him down.TheSystemLord1

Onan refused to impregnate his deceased brother's (I believe) wife, thus pulling out and spilling his seed. He was punished for disobeying God's order to impregnate the woman.

I don't see the connection to masturbation.

The fact that I didn't remember the name should have told u how well I remember the story.

I remember the story, God sturk him down because he was suppose to make the women pregnet because the women is his brothers wife, and his brother is dead so he should have made the women pregnet so that his brother's house would not end

No it is not.

I've never been caught but I've had some close calls ahha but I have been caught looking at the stuff that boosts that certain satisfaction (if you know what I mean). damn that was awkard...

When I was going to get confirmed as catholic, a father gave us a paper that said many sins so you could see if you had committed some of those. There it said: "commit acts of impure masturbation So, I'm sure it is a sin. Period.

I've never been caught, and I've done it in an open hallway in the middle of my house several times.

If I caught my son doing it, I'd make sure he wasn't looking at guys and then leave.:|

Dracargen

An open hallway, my uncle's kitchen, the bathroom at my doctor's office, several restaurants, a baby's bedroom (without the baby), my grandparents' place, and the apartment of some woman my mom used to know.

I was very addicted.

My list:

• My friends house
• at school (multiple schools)
• my grandparent's house
• on the couch in my house
• in the kitchen
• at church during confirmation (at church with my paster 5ft away from me under a desk one time)
• ect, ect

I never did it in a restaurant though, or my uncle's place. I still think i win though!

I have been caught, once. And the stupid thing was it wasn't because of someone bursting into my room, it was because I kept the curtains open while doing it... :oops:

If I ever caught my son/ daughter having happy time i'd probably laugh hysterically then tease them about it whenever they bring a girlfriend/ boyfriend round. :P

Its not in there. If it was, I would have found it via almighty google.

Maybe because it refers to it in an indirect way. But I'm sure it is a sin.

I used an indirect search technique. I didn't look for verbatim verses, I used queries like "The bible says masturbation is a sin"

When I was going to get confirmed as catholic, a father gave us a paper that said many sins so you could see if you had committed some of those. There it said: "commit acts of impure masturbation So, I'm sure it is a sin. Period.

Just to clear things up, somene I know once daringly asked our R.E teacher about this, to which this teacher said that even Catholic priests are allowed to masturbate by the church
