sex was created for a married man and woman. Lust is a sinful desire/act if you aren't married.
GAL 5:19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
EPH 5:3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people.
5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person--such a man is an idolater--has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of
HEB 13:4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed keptpure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

Masturbation is the best way of releasing stress and tension. Its NORMAL. Its nature's way of keeping your body free of tension, and stopping you from accumulating too much semen in your balls. Everyone does it.
Do not listen to the Church leaders/teachers/preachers. While they're telling you how evil masturbating is, they can't wait to get home and do it.
And then there's the alternative to masturbating. Having sex with your gf before you're married, or waiting for a wet dream to happen. Have you ever had a wet dream? They are the most disgusting porn you could imagine. You think that's God giving you that dream? Well, when I was a Christian I was told that's God's way of getting the semen out of your body. Boy of boy ... God knows how to give you a fun ride if that's the case.
There's an old saying that is very true ...
99% of guys masturbate. The other 1% are liars.
And another thing that gets me p***ed off - Christian girls who will tell you that you shouldn't masturbate. They have no idea what its like to be a guy. How dare they get on their holier-than-thou soap box and tell guys what they should and shouldn't do. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Yes, then masturbating is a bad thing. I am Catholic and in my church, that is not heard of. In the bible, it tells a story about a man who was supposed to get his wife pregnant. So, he got her drunk instead and masturbated. It says he 'spill some on the ground'. God was mad and he killed him.
Today, in our mixed media world, thousands of things are considered cool, like porn, and gay marriages. But in fact much of it goes against God's plan. He is the one who created you, and there for, what he says it true.
Masturbating is bad, it is a way of sexually abusing your self. Do not be afraid of it. Just make sure that you do not do it!

LOL!!!!
Of course not!!! Just because some "Good Christians" have misinterpreted a passage in the Bible doesn't make masturbation bad.
Think of Masturbation along with Sex as two safety valves that let you blow off (our rather shoot out) steam. It's just a way to relax and unwind and take pressure off you.
PS:
You won't go blind either, LOL!!!!!

No, it is not. It is normal and you are normal, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise because having unnecessary guilt about it can mess you up for life!
masturbation should not interfere with work, school,driving, dinner or any other regular activity, but it is perfectly normal otherwise.

depends how you look at it -
healthwise: definitely not. in fact, it's considered healthy.
religiously : well depends on your type of christianity, but i am certain you could talk to a religious representative to explain why. (sister, priest, etc). I'm quite certain some religions believe you should abstain from it.

"Do not offer parts of your body as instruments of sin." in the bible.
What do you think of when you do it? Probably a hot chick right?
It's lustful. You must have self control. A fruit of the spirit. Ask the Lord to give you strength to abstain from it. While in the shower going to bed, listen to worship music or a sermon on CD.
Be strong, dude. you can do it.

No, it is not bad, and don't listen to any religious nutcakes who tell you otherwise.
Enjoy yourself. Men and women of all ages do it, whether they're married or single.
Just try to focus more on quality than quantity.
Enjoy the journey; not just the destination.
