• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Masturbation!

Bad? Good?

  • BAD SIN NO-NO.

  • Meh.

  • It's good and healthy.

Oh geeze, I saw all these pages and thought people were actually debating! Well I have nothing new to add to this great list, but I will leave you with my favorite quote about having sex:

"This could be your only chance to drown the slippery otter!
To harpoon the salty longshoreman!
To verb the adjective noun!"
- Abe Lincolns foster dad (Clone High)

My absolute favorite joke in the world.

Around the 1980's there was several scientific studies done to figgure out why a man had a head on his penis.

American scientists spent 22 million dollars and determined that it was to give the man more pleasure during sex.

British scientists spent 180 million dollars and determined that it was to give the woman more pleasure during sex.

French scientists spent 20 dollars and determined that it was to keep the man's hand from flying up and hitting him in the face. :D

The countries involved change with the person telling the joke and the ammounts of money changes but its still a great joke :)

Ohhh come off it, if nothing else it provides some entertainment.

Not everything about sex is "junior high drivel"

A man of your age (no offense) should know that one of the things you MUST have if your going to have sex is a sense of humor.

And since it's not listed as a sin, I guess that means he intended it not to be.

Well, lust is listed, and it often times than not, masturbation involves that. If it doesn't for you, then ask the Lord if He agrees w/ it or if you honestly feel peace about it.

Well, I don't think that it's a sin, but I wanted to commend you on a logical and thought out arguement. It's good to see people thinking, rather than saying "It just is." :clap:

By masturbation is to be understood the deliberate stimulation of the genital organs in order to derive sexual pleasure. "Both the Magisterium of the Church, in the course of a constant tradition, and the moral sense of the faithful have been in no doubt and have firmly maintained that masturbation is an intrinsically and gravely disordered action." "The deliberate use of the sexual faculty, for whatever reason, outside of marriage is essentially contrary to its purpose." For here sexual pleasure is sought outside of "the sexual relationship which is demanded by the moral order and in which the total meaning of mutual self-giving and human procreation in the context of true love is achieved."

To form an equitable judgment about the subjects' moral responsibility and to guide pastoral action, one must take into account the affective immaturity, force of acquired habit, conditions of anxiety or other psychological or social factors that lessen, if not even reduce to a minimum, moral culpability. (CCC, 2352)
