Murdering people, hey maybe don't do that?
LOL I've got the impression that most religions are more something like: masturbate? Be tortured in hell for eternity...
Actually, the Bible doesn't forbid masturbation expressly. The reason why (many) Christians are against it is that sex is presented in the Bible as an expression of relationship, and of bonds between people. Masturbation is against this purpose. Logically, then, masturbation between couples is thus fine. But protestants tend to abide by conscience, not rules, so it'd be right for some and not right for others. We can often sense if we are displeasing God by our actions: like when you've dispeased anyone, there's a kind of distance...
Do you think religion is a plague?
