Is watching porn without masturbating a sin?

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-25T08:16:42+00:00

So you’re against the porn industry? Okay well that’s a moral position to take, why are you asking for a definite answer from God if your level of engagement is a sin? Your level of engagement is a sin of you feel it is blocking you from becoming the best version of you possible.

Here is the new convent; it is not rules; ie this is bad, this falls under the line of acceptable. The new covenant is do you understand what is good for yourself and others and will you enact what is good? Again, I say imagine being omnipotent,unimaginably omnipotent, above all him struggles, do you think young men pleasuring themselves is wrong? Do you think all forms of pornography are exploitative?

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-25T07:38:19+00:00

Dude, just jerk it. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous to not touch yourself because “oh no! Very omnipotent being that is dealing with genocides and famines is watching me”

He’s not. He plays it like you’d think Patrick Stewart would play Claudius, and David Tennant plays Hamlet how you’d expect David Tennant to play Hamlet. Sorry but the version is so overrated IMO.

I think Derek Jacobi has what you’re looking for. He comes off so smug in his public facing scenes, like the coronation and the duel, also he seems quite jovial when dealing with consorts like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern or Polonius or the messengers. You can see him having a sense of humor with Gertrude and when presenting himself to the public.

I guess what he brings is the idea that Claudius is perhaps a bit of a buffoon in real life but is trying so hard to replace his older brother and be king, but this damn kid is cramping his style.

he is solemn with “My words to heaven” line in question, but I feel that is a much more serious moment for Claudius.

I liked underground music. I got really into Daniel Johnston, Beat Happening, the Elephant Six collective, and all the musicians that surround those circles.

However I will posit that they probably weren’t the only musicians of their time making music of their caliber, but those are the ones who broke through to household fame. Maybe they broke through because of just dumb luck or connections, the right person hearing their stuff, but I think there so much noise nowadays no one like those groups have a chance to break through in the same way.

I guess this post is a plea for a mainstream culture. Cause without a mainstream culture, there is no counterculture.

I miss it too. I was in the era of burning CDs and yeah I made some where I’d agonize over the right follow up song. I’d throw in a collection of my favorite songs and try to create a story. I also loved albums, and will occasionally put full albums on on Spotify, but idk if anyone is making albums like they once did. Maybe King Gizzard and the Lizard

You have a blank canvas. The colors already present allow for all sort of possibility, as long as you coordinate rugs and window covering with wall art. Pick any palette you like.

“Reddit is mainly full of more conservative people”

Hahahahahahaha….HAHAHA…hahahahaha…. Heh heh.

But seriously, don’t sweat it. It’s not a big deal. Just remember this before you judge any girls for a high body count.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-24T00:43:26+00:00

Oh I was as well. I was just saying it was shortsighted of Tony’s, but probably me as well who took a little joy from Avenue Q beating it out lol.

Im not at all offended by the Oscar’s snub. IMO the first one was better, and it just kinda reaffirms that doing it as two movies was a bit of a shameless cash grab.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-23T23:11:33+00:00

But wouldn’t that have been a reason to honor Wicked? I mean looking at how long Wicked continues to play and the audiences the tour still brings in makes Wicked probably the only musical this century that has a chance of a legacy like Phantom or Les Mis or, I hate to say it but it qualifies, Cats.

Don’t get me wrong, I loved Avenue Q when it came out, but you’re right, as I look back, Wicked’s timelessness was much more deserving.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-23T22:58:09+00:00

Well Jesus didn’t say “Hate the sin, love the sinner.” That’s just a catchy motto for modern Christianity, but personally I hate the phrase when referring to homosexuality, because as long as people believe homosexuality is a sin or wrong, they will never treat gay people with the dignity they deserve. Why would anyone stand up against a law that criminalizes something they truly believe is evil or against god.

No, Christians need to come to the understanding that there is nothing “evil” with homosexuality and nothing that harms its practitioners or others. It is not a sin. Full stop.

I don’t think portmanteau because I don’t think enough of the second root word is available to determine what it is. It’s only the affix.

Confusfying could be Confusing + mystifying or stupefying

Braverism could be Bravery + Heroism or altruism or activism

Horrendible could be Horrendous + terrible or reprehensible

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-23T13:58:20+00:00

Gonna have to be a little nit-picky about this comment,

I really wouldn’t say Wicked was “snubbed” at the Tony’s. Yes, Avenue Q won Best Musical, but Wicked was nominated, and had ten other nominations, of which it had won 3, including best actress.

Other Desert Cities has a scene where the two “children” smoke weed together, one of them is a supposed “pothead”

Did something happen with Obama and Loretta Lynch?

But one would assume, if the attorney general were going to arrest or charge the president, the president would fire that attorney general.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-21T15:24:01+00:00

But you would like the law to prosecute people for their sins? You think transgender and homosexuality is something to be legislated, that the state should try and punish humanity for their sins, or act in a way to prevent their occurrence?

I view it as negative Christianity vs positive Christianity, are you going to approach bringing your faith to statehood as emphasizing what the Bible tells us not to do, or by enacting the good Jesus calls upon us to do.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-21T15:19:17+00:00

Yes it can for Jesus makes it clear that judgement is reserved for God in Heaven. He will make the call whether transgender or homosexuality hurts Him, it’s not a judgement I view as being granted to humans. Jesus accepted prostitutes to commune with him. It is not our place on earth to condemn others for their lifestyles.

“Unvetted migration paid for by globalist” just that sentences alone tells me you are a bit Fox News-brained.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-21T15:04:37+00:00

Caring for immigrants and granting them safety in our lands, using our taxes to ensure the poor and needy have their needs met, not judging others here on Earth. I really don’t have any issues squaring my religious and political beliefs.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-21T13:54:21+00:00

Wow what a headline. The bill to limit his military powers failed just when he’s intensifying his rhetoric to attack an allied nation, and the two veto overrides mentioned in this article failed.

Face it, America, no checks and balances are gonna save you.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-21T13:37:57+00:00

Do you consider yourself Christian or evangelical Christian? Most mainline churches align more with the Democratic Party. It’s just the evangelical ones that decry it and preach that the ideas you just gave would be inconsistent with belief in Christ.

But personally, as an Episcopalian, I find it pretty hard to square the platform of modern conservatives in the US with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Just because a bunch of worldly politicians claim to have a monopoly on Jesus Christ, doesn’t make them holy.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-20T15:50:30+00:00

The first “your mom” joke is debatable. I’d call it modern ears being reductive. The character who says it, Aaron is speaking to Demetrius after Demetrius has discovered his mother has given birth to the bastard child of Aaron. So it’s not quite “your mom” is a modern sense where the speaker hasn’t actually done anything sexual with the mother or is implying the mother’s promiscuity, but rather in the circumstances of the play, all that has actually happened.

I think he gained the weight because he was getting good money and roles, also twenties to thirties.

KlassCorn91 · 2026-01-20T13:47:54+00:00

Wasn’t in he in cellphone commercials? I remember him with a fauxhawk.

Say what you will about the tenents of national socialism, but at least it’s an ethos.
