supposedly even thinking lust acts is a huge no no. ITs all contradicitng and impossible to not break the rules. How many grown men can say they have honestly never looked at a girls *** (or guys) and said "damn, id like to slap her around a bit"..........
"not if ur saved" lol
so I can go kill 384737437 people, but its OK because im saved.pffft

The Bible doesn't say anything specifically on this subject. It does speak of the "thought" life however. But getting sent to hell has nothing to do with sin as much as what we DO about our sins.. and that's where a relationship (strike the word religion) comes in. What you believe about Jesus decides where you will spend your afterlife.....afterall, He took our deserved punishment for our sins upon Himself on the cross...... WHY? Because He is God and because He loves us. Get a Bible and read it and learn lots more.

Nope.
Not being clensed by the blood of Jesus is what will land you in hell. We are all sinners, and God will punish all sin equally and justly. Death is the price we will pay for our sins.
Accept what his son did for you on the cross and you will be saved. Don't accept and pay the price yourself.
Heaven and hell is not about works or deeds of any sort. Seems like maybe you have been misled a little bit.

The concept of a place called 'Hell' is a human invention, as is religion. Whether a higher intelligence actually exists is another matter. If it does, it is probably totally indifferent to any methods of self-gratification in which you may indulge. Have fun!

Well, Roman Catholics have masturbation as a mortal "Sin"; which we can save ourselves from hell through confessing when we masterbate (or other mortal sin).
See, we believe that sex is meant to be shared. That self-gratification leads to more selfishness ... and since we're taking and not sharing, well, we're missing out on sex the way God created it. Since sex was created to "Share" in giving to each other ... it needs to be a life long sharing; so sex in marriage.
If you treat your urge like an "itch" or a "desire" to satisfy ... well, then you're nothing more than enslaving yourself to u'r desires ... and Jesus came to free us. He doesn't want us to throw away the gift of sex, but rather find ways of using this gift for good.
Ah, professional boxers are coached not to "ejaculate" because this is bad for their performance ... the Tibetan Monks also teach that ejaculation results in the loss of "Chi" and also discourage masturbation ...

Masturbation is a form of uncleanness. It can make you a ‘slave to various desires and pleasures,’ and it fosters attitudes that can be mentally corrupting. (Titus 3:3) At the same time, self-masturbation is not a form of gross sexual immorality, such as fornication. (Ephesians 4:19) Hence, if you have a problem with masturbation, you need not conclude that you have committed the unforgivable sin. The key is to resist the urge and never to give up your fight!

Would you give your child a gift that gave him great pleasure and then tell him that he wasn't to use it because if he did he would go straight to hell? No? Neither would God. We are here to experience life in all its fullness - the pleasure and the pain - not either/or. What point is there in receiving gifts that we are afraid to use?

anything in excess will create your own personal hell on earth. Masturbation itself is not a sin, but if you are addicted to it, and it controls your life, then it is.
P.S. Religion can itself be a sin when it causes you to take your family and friends for granted and not live your life.
