selfie for a one hand...

use both hands

as we live in a world where poverty is often accused to be "the fault of the poor", though poverty is lauded by the churches as "happy are the poor" (http://biblehub.com/matthew/5-3.htm), where global warming is "due to clean air" according to some religious sources (CP News) and religious wars have "nothing to do with religions", we have to contemplate the value of praising the lord while the monkey ejaculates.

The latest about masturbation comes from the American Bishops via the international atheist alliance website. For some the above image is wrong since about 26 per cent of the population is left-handed and females (about 50.1 per cent of the world population) do not indulge at all in the practice of rubbing their genitals for pleasure.

getting addicted on one heinous self...

According to the bishops, pornography rated a special statement "because pornography affects so many people's lives and requires a collaborative, concentrated effort by all of us to counter its harms." They declare porn not only a "public health crisis" and a mortal sin, but a gateway to immorality, saying "all pornography is immoral and harmful and using pornography may lead to other sins, and possibly, even crimes."

While popular culture largely sees it as acceptable, masturbation is always gravely contrary to chastity and the dignity of one's body. Like other sins against chastity, it seeks sexual pleasure outside of the mutual self-giving and fruitful intimacy of spouses in marriage, in this case, even outside of any relationship at all. In addition, engaging in masturbation has powerful neurological effects that can make it into a highly addictive behavior.

And in case that isn't enough to scare you off porn, other potential consequences include "adultery, domestic violence, the abuse of children in child pornography, and sex trafficking," as well as abortion and contraception, since pornography "promotes and even celebrates promiscuity and a view of sexuality devoid of love or openness to new life."

It's a little rich for an institution that's still struggling to come to terms with sexual predators in its midst to warn about child pornography, which is obviously a heinous crime completely apart from the adult viewing of consensually made pornography.
