I posted it in response to your shitposts

Oh, you are the same guy

Sorry
I didn't see that you were just joking in here

And No Fap Challenge

Yay

What's the point of the No Fap challenge? Is it just to stop addiction to masturbating?

Basically

Oh.

I mean form my experience, masturbation took a lot from me, and it took me 8 years to realize that

Its a reward for doing nothing much

That makes you lazier

Masturbation is the sexual equivalent of munching on a bag of sugar.

You have isolated the pleasure from the purpose of the pleasure.

Honestly as long as it keeps the libidos down Im fine with it.

Look at Korea's rape statistics after they started censoring porn

I don't support censoring things

I just think that Masturbation is scary

I also just found it

I think masturbation in a moderate amount is healthy. It allows the person to figure out what turns them on, what they like, how they like things, to learn about their own body. And they are taking part in this self learning with someone whom loves them. So to go along with the munching on sugar analogy. It could be seen more as learning how to bake cookies that you like and then going to someone and offering them to bake cookies with you while showing them how you like your cookies since you already know what kind of cookies you like. . .does that make sense?

I'm afraid not. I feel that it's pretty self evident that reproductive organs are for, well, reproduction. Self-pleasuring isn't a reproductive act, and thus is a misuse of the organs. Pretty straightforward.

Thinking pleasure is the point instead of a side effect is a mistake.

Religion is an essential component of a functioning society.

is religion really essential or is it just a consistently held set of beliefs amongst a population?

Arguing for the necessity of religious ideals in human society would require more energy and refresher research than I'm willing to muster right now.

religion is probably the easiet way to implement that

but at quite the cost

I don't know if I'd say that religion is essential but it's more like humans seem to have a religious need that, if not properly filled, gets filled by whatever is available.

atheism is just the modern religion

To think of it more in terms of food, if a person doesn't eat enough or properly the body will try and sacrifice the lesser needed parts (like fat) to get what it needs to sustain the important parts.

If the body can't get what it needs from storage then it begins to break down other parts, like muscle.

But it's more of filling a hole. So whatever is at hand seems to get plugged.

I's funny, but that's more or less what religious people have been claiming for a while

You choose to believe in something or you believe whatever's available

Probably that phrasing made people think it was just about people being too stupid to "choose for themselves", but it was trying to get at this sort of thing

It makes sense that religious people would claim that. To say something to the effect of, "Everyone needs to eat, we just choose to eat different things." wouldn't be controversial at all.

But in terms of religions the old way of thinking would be, "My diet is the right way and that's that!"

It's amusing because people do exactly that with diets!

So that they'd also do it with other stuff shouldn't really surprise anyone

Also, phrasing it as a diet is interesting, because not every conceivable diet is equally valid or good

Which I guess is kinda Peterson's idea

I think you're absolutely correct, Malt.
