the point is, if we are serving ourselves, we are not serving God. Masturbation in no way glorifies God. It makes our self-pleasure our idol.
So when people do stuff like read manga does that in any way Glorify God ?

sometimes the content of the manga is not beneficial to our thinking patterns. like we definitely should avoid H-manga, or hentai which is pornography. masturbation isn't a hobby though. it is sexually self-gratifying. it is something that can take our energy. Energy that can be used for the Lord. Masturbation is in no way productive, and there are no unselfish reasons for masturbation. Masturbation is sexual activity outside of marriage also.
