  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What is your opinion on art as a cop out in masturbation?

The argument is that the bible says nothing about art being a sin, which leads me to ask this. If one masturbates to "art" that is not real would it still be sinful or lustful?
I have read most of the verses regarding lust and adultery and not once did it include anything about unreal pictures.
So is it sin?

Just interested on hearing people's view on the matter.

God knows the real motivation in someone's heart so although a person may claim to be doing art, God knows in that persons heart that he or she was just looking for a cop out
