What I find amazing is that the ladies are definitely absent from this thread.

Trust me, it's not from the lack of "interest", it's that fact that it is as much a mental situation as it is a physical.

You have not heard that many MEN "brag" (confess) about it either... and the statistical evidence for female masturbation is pretty well-established.

Well, they say 97% of males masturbate.

.....and the other 3% are liars. Women and their percentages? HMMMM... who knows.....

sooooooo... do you think they are thinking about God while they are ministering to their flesh? or maybe they are in deep thought about some of His creation?

It is definitely a struggle all face. I don't have all the answers, and I think it is hard to draw a definitive line on when or what is sinful in this regard. That being said...

Whatever value the physical act may have in stemming sexual desire there is the danger of it fostering sexual desire as well.

If one can merely release biological pressure then I suppose they are well within the bounds of Scripture. However, if one has, or has to have, sexual thoughts or stimuli in order to perform the act then the danger of committing sin is present, and a real threat.

I surely want to think you're just messing with someone. Do you think about God 24x7 and engage in some deep thoughts about him every second of every day? Do you think about God when you belly up to the food bar and have a third plate of slop? Do you think about God when you take a squat on the toilet? Both are great gifts from him...the toilet as well as the ability to defecate. It's a gift from God to have money to go to Ryans and in some regard, their chicken pot pie could be considered a gift from God.

How bout it Mem, do you apply the standard you're judging this post by?

yes l do... its you liberals that don't give your personal relationship with God consideration... you're hung up on the thought that "Lust of the Flesh" is fine and dandy in your sin ridden eyes... you never use the standard of "Fear and Trembling" when making your warped decisions...


back at ya big boy... Laughing Laughing Laughing

Post Memory? Steve LaFever
Are you seriously saying you are thinking of God when you are "with" your wife?

Are you thinking of God when you go to the Bathroom?

I must admit that sometimes I don't even like to (just) lie in bed with my wife with no clothes because I know God can see me, but that is about the extent of me thinking of God when I'm with my wife. I know that sounds weird because he can see us regardless of whether we have clothes on or not. I don't have a problem taking a shower with no clothes, but for some odd reason, I feel strange to do it in other places. How's that for messed up Puritan thinking Smile

I'm sure everybody already knew I was weird, so this is just the final icing on the cake isn't it Smile

I've tried to read the Bible sometimes when I'm on the pot, and it just feels too weird and so I won't.

Yea, I know I am really warped Smile

Just so long as you remain the "thinkee" and not the "thinker" I think you're still OK.... Laughing
