Yes,sure.
I’m going to look in the mirror and say to myself, “Stop masturbating now, because the wages of this sin are hairy palms and blindness.” Puh leeez

Why do you mock me? I only speak of reason. And I reason that things like masturbation have consequences. Hairy palms and Blindness are not of those consequences. Holding selfish feelings in your heart is only the beginning of a LONG line of problems that it can lead to.

So, who are you accountable to?

Yes. But masturbation is hardly like murder or theft. Those are clearly immoral. Peeing is natural but I wouldn’t do it in public. Durr.

So, may we take this to mean you agree there is no connection between something being “natural” and whether it is sinful/immoral?

That would make sense…

Death is natural, but I would not kill someone to make death come sooner.
 
Well, Sex is natural. Pleasure is natural. But there are rules placed in nature that need to be followed, a natural order to things. Masturbation is “jumping the gun” when it comes to pleasure, just as murder is “jumping the gun” to death. Puns intended.

Sure, take it that way if you wish. Now I’m getting confused.

If so, you’re confusing yourself. I am laboring under the presumption that you wanted to be understood.

You said masturbation is not sinful - after all, it’s only “natural”, as if being “natural” had anything to do with the question.

Rape can be “natural” - I’ve seen it occur on the Discovery Channel in the jungles of Borneo.

Eating feces can be “natural” - my dog does it every now and again (and I once had a neighbor who claimed it was good for you!).

I just wanted to try to understand your thoughts, which, as you know, can come off as being a bit confused.

Peace all.
