Hurting,

 

I questioned just about everything about the Catholic religion, picked up the bible and read it...I am no longer Catholic.

"Is masturbation a sin?"

 

Beats the hell out of me!

 

LMAO at this one - again :D

Its better then boinking the choir boys!:rolleyes:

 

I think that masturbation is a way of relieving sexual tension and that it is not something to be ashamed of.

Adultery is bad, but it's better than the rape and massacre of an entire french convent. Does that make adultery less sinful?

I don't know that every denomination considers masturbation a sin, there, Dyer me lad.

A sin can also be a social transgression, and since my previous statement was in response to a hateful slur on a paticular denomination, I spoke in the context of said denomination.

And you did it beautifully, as usual :)

Masturbation is not a sin.

Dyer I was not being hateful, I am Catholic myself.

 

I was not trying to offend anyone.

 

I will refrain from making comments on any religious matter.

I have an odd sense of humor and if you don't know me , you do not understand that I make fun of myself regularily.

The fact that you are a Catholic doesn't change the offensiveness of your comments. Any further justification will result in backpedaling. You weren't making a legitimate commentary on religion, you're entitled to do so. Instead, you were making a hateful statement about a very serious issue, offensive to both the institution that you slander, as well as the victims of the scandal. You thought it was funny, I did not.

LOL...

 

Yeah, 182% sounds right to me. And sometimes it feels like 152% of the LS women gripe about it! ;)

 

Well, Moimeme, it was good of you to throw that typo in to reassure us you are an actual person. :laugh:

Nah. Don't believe the myth. I'm a soulless, heartless robot.

I was baffled that the numbers were so low, actually. Do you suppose lots of people lie about it in surveys? And if so, why?

38% of respondents lie in surveys.

How many % out of the 38% lied?

Posted

Uhh.... 38%.... duh

But what if they are lying about lying, were they telling the truth initially or when they said they lied?

:confused:
