The thing that you call a true marriage was milleniums ago...Why should you be bothered about this so much? Are you riding a horse to office? It was the term of transportation meant thousands ago.... So your believes...

No, there's nothing wrong with pornography and masturbation. Masturbation is a healthy activity. Feeling shame over it produces neurosis.

If you find a nice woman to have a relationship with, have sex if you want. It's dumb to think that the Creator of the universe would care if you have a legal document before you have sex. Just do it and enjoy yourself.

I think God has more important things to worry about than whether or not you smoke or masturbate. =) Though, if you honestly feel anxiety for every little thing you do, maybe you should consider switching churches/denominations. Baptists are one of the more harsher/legalistic denominations when it comes to things like sin, IMO, and focusing too much on one thing like that (which is so negative) is spiritually unhealthy.

There's nothing wrong with suicide, being a baptist, or sex/porn/fapathons.

The real issue is personal growth and stimulating growth in others.

Suicide stops the game, but for those who don't see growth occurring or feel continually set back, it seems like the only positive change available. No judgment.

Honest sex is the best sex and it can bring growth, but often times porn, fapping, and immature, dishonest sex can hinder growth. You'd be amazed at the goals you can accomplish if you forgo sexual activity and throw all your energy into personal development. (Of course, when you start really growing, people can tell, and they want to scr3w you, so there's that to lookout for/look forward to).

......

Don't worry about hell. It's such a d!ck move if some weird God made and sustains one, that you wouldn't be able to trust or respect or abide with such a deity anyway for very long.
