Its not a sin bro. God wouldn't care about something so petty I honestly believe that is just bullshit that humans made up because it seems indecent. Masturbation is a normal thing to do and God doesn't mind. Don't let others know obviously but if your worried God is mad at you for masturbating I don't think you have to worry about that anymore.

Paul and Jesus both felt that people should be concerned more with the spiritual than the physical. Anything that is "of the flesh" distracts from the spiritual and is to be avoided.

no such thing as sin. Also important to realize medical research is statistical analysis and loaded with flaws I seriously doubt that masturbation reduces prostate cancer.

Where in the bible, does it state it reduce the chance of prostate cancer? Well lets consider Colossians 3:5, which reads: “Deaden, therefore, your body members that are upon the earth as respects fornication, uncleanness, sexual appetite, hurtful desire, and covetousness.” And 1 Thessalonians 4:4, 5 says: “Each one . . . should . . . get possession of his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in covetous sexual appetite such as also those nations have which do not know God.” Such counsel applies to married Christians as well as to those who are single, but even more restraint needs to be exercised by single persons since finding relief of passion by sexual relations is limited to those who are married. Can you see that masturbation is a practice that violates the command to deaden “sexual appetite”? Masturbation is a form of uncleanness. The Christian apostle Paul’s counsel is right to the point: “God called us, not with allowance for uncleanness, but in connection with sanctification.” And again he writes: “Therefore, since we have these promises, beloved ones, let us cleanse ourselves of every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in God’s fear.”—1 Thess. 4:7; 2 Cor. 7:1. This world ruled by Satan tolerates unclean conduct, even encourages it.

Since when is reducing chances of cancer "healing" cancer?
20 :
It is really not a sin. Many males have to relieve their tensions through masturbation. Just do it and do it for your religion And offer the pain to the church.Even priests were told to masturbate.
21 :
becuz whoever made up that rule didn't fucking know about any possible benefits. thats the whole thing about church teachings. even tho they claim that they come from a supposedly all-knowing infallible source, they were made up by people, just like u and me. don't think too hard about religion....it doesn't make sense.
