I never said that it wasn’t sexual, but it is not SEX. Sex is a specific thing. In response to your second post, yes, performing such acts with children is wrong. Performing them with adults is not.

If it is sexual, then it is sex. There is more than one sex act. If doing can bring a person to ejaculation/orgasm, then it is s e x.

Yep, a lot of Liberturdians think that is where it should go eventually, even if they know they should never say this in public. You can find stuff like that deep in libertarian boards where they preach to the choir.

Thank you for writing. I truly despise Libertarians more than any other group, including Jihadists, because Libertarians are the most amoral and most dishonest. I wish that all of them could be purged from FR, because their philosophy and goals are inimical to Conservatism.

"Protestants say that all sins are equally wrong, and Catholics (and presumably Orthodox as well) say that sexual sin is of the venial sort."

Not so. The Catholic Church teaches that sins against the Faith, against Life, and against Sexuality are always "grave matter". Which means, objectively serious. They constitute mortal sins subjectively (as applied to you), if you did them knowingly and willingly.

It's true that there are any number of sins, and not all of them seem to be hot buttons right now. For instance you hardly hear a sermon about usury nowadays, which is really a shame because that's actually a seriously destructive thing, condemned by the Prophets of Israel and the Fathers of the Church.

However pseudogamy is a current hot button for a pretty good reason, because it's at the point of being repackaged, relabeled, and mass-marketed as a postive good, meriting legal valorization, social celebration, and the honors of the altar.

At least ruinous moneylending isn't being promoted as a quasi-sacrament; and nobody's gong to be prosecuted for hate-speech if they say "Don't be a filthy usurer," "Don't screw people with debt."

ALL the sexual sins are taught in schools as normal. ALL of them.

So speaking the truth gets one investigated?

It's a sin to seek sexual stimulation or gratification outside of marriage, period. By any means whatsoever.

Jesus was uncompromising on this. He said it's a sin even to LOOK for purposes of lust, i.e. for intentional arousal: it's adultery in the heart.

No, it isn’t, unless you honestly want to argue that masturbation is sex, at which point, I’l simply laugh at you.

Amen.

And a grown man knows this, feels this.

Rutting adolescents probably just wander off to rationalize thier weakness.

Do you have a special room, complete with accoutrements, where you build all your rationalizations?

To: Future Snake Eater
Genesis 38 contains the only contracepted sexual act described the Bible; and referring to the perpetrator, the Bible says "And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing."

Can't get much stronger than that. But there's virtually no preaching against contraception in any of the churches. Anywhere.

Laugh all you want, but of course masturbation is sex, and is a constant feature of pornographic movies, “money shot” and all.

"oral stimulation outside of sex"

???

You mean kissing?

We all kiss babies.

But we don't kiss them to cause genital arousal, in them or in ourselves. That's the difference. Sexual arousal is only right with your spouse. But I'm guessing everybody probably knows that.
