Question Is masturbation a sin?

I'm crystal clear on the sinfulness of premarital sex, but I'm unclear on sexual self-gratification...

I think I had read that article perhaps a few years ago . . .maybe 5 or so. If nothing in it has changed from what I remember, I completely agree.

I do vehemently believe that Masterbation is a sin

I agree Michael. My friend, who is a christian, and I had this discussion. She was single and didn't think it was a sin, but I think the bible is clear that it is. The link provided is awesome. She is married now, however we have never talked about the subject again.
I also believe if we have to ask if it is a sin; the Holy Spirit is most likely convicting. Great post.

I was thinking that, too.
