So, I made it a year and a half without it once and it didn't make me any more pure, and it made me grumpy thinking that Jesus killed a kitten every time I masturbate,:eek: or what a religious brother told me about masturbation causing souls to go to hell , earthquakes in third world countries, famines, and natural disasters.

People talk about it like it causes God's grace to stop flowing onto earth and separates us from God.

It is popular in the Catholic Church to believe it to be a mortal sin that destroys charity in the heart , kills the soul, and sends you marching towards hell.

Believing that , is harmful for the soul, because it made me so miserable I simply gave up and went crazy! It created more tension and misery. It ironically made me more perverted and more focused on sex, trying to repress the desire to relieve myself.

Do you think it's possible to turn the act into an act of love, adoration, or offering to a spirit-entity that is a patron of sexuality? I know that if I was a Deity, and people were thinking about me when they masturbated, and prayed for my exaltation when they climaxed, I would be flattered and mildly amused rather than offended. Maybe there are Deities or Sprits (Kami) with that attitude?

Maybe the gods aren't offended if we channel the energy the right way or something (turn it into a prayer) lol ;)

Please tell me the effects of masturbation on the soul and the harm it does. Thanks! Best to avoid it and I try to , but it's better to not burn with repressing tension either. :)

Keep your composure!

Yes masturbation hurts the soul and causes disasters, though I don't care to argue because I'll be up against stiff competition, pun intended.

One of the many benefits of being an atheist, you don't have a god sitting on your shoulder telling you masturbation is wrong because repressed people dictate it

I find that while there are certainly mood shifts involved in abstinence and release, finding the right masturbatory balance is very helpful for me. Too little and my soul becomes ready to erupt in an explosion of desire, too much and my soul lies limp and raw and needs a rest.

That's the best I can do outside Eros. ;-)

You think monks don't play the old skin flute?
It's forbidden.

These were Franciscans of the Immaculata who still wip themselves as penance.

They also can't receive holy communion after masturbating or they crucify and torture Jesus with a sacrilege communion.

Masturbating is a HUGE No! No! And deadly sin that mortally wounds the soul, in that order!
