when jesus was born there was no porn yet and there is only one whore in mary magdaline,maybe to the eyes of jesus its bad to posses porno and masturbate, but to the church dont think so,remember people in that church are human too,they do and did masturbate and have sex on occassions and you know that by reading the news headlines sometimes (priest molesting kids) so you should be okay, besides jesus died for our sins so you already have a payment if possession of porno and masturbation is a sin,

Jesus was a Jew and as such would've known the story of Onan who avoided having to marry his brother's widow by "spilling his seed" in front of her.Thus masturbation in itself is not a sin neither is lust as human's have these drives for a reason...as to porn Jeshua Jesus said something like " if thy eye offends thee pluck it out"...

I'm not sure if it is an abomination but He defiantly hates it. At the core of masturbation and porn are lust and a belief that God will not provide for you needs.

Anyone here who can ask Jesus to his face?
You cant speak for him.
If so hows that then?
Is he in front of you right now?
Sorry just trying to make a point :)
p.s Im not dissing him he is an ascended master and I have a gorgeous painting of him.

I always found it funny that masturbation (of all things) was ever considered to be a sin. Murder, rape, lying, stealing, masturbating. Which one doesn't quite fit in there with the other four?
But yeah, I'm pretty sure God doesn't mind.

If we are dead or crucified with Christ, we will not masturbate. If you are serious about God, masturbation is a waste of your time and give you nothing.
Pornography is even worse, from the words of the wise; "whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart"

That all depends on your reading of the Bible. Liberal Christians probably wouldn't have a big problem with it, whilst other more reactionary religious people would probably promote the guilt trip thing.

I doubt it. It helps prevent Prostate Cancer if you do it at least 3 times a week
Its only a sin to spill your seed on stony ground

The Bible is silent on this issue. It's a normal and natural release and there is nothing wrong with it (as long as you don't overdo it). After all, God gave us the means to be pleasured!

I really don't think Jesus can see ANYTHING, and as for the rest of it, why doesn't the Church butt out of it all and get on with its own affairs.
