flip Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 If "Spilling your seed" is a sin, and in effect, you are killing thousands of sperm that could be life, then why aren't wet dreams a sin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StColette Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 (edited) because wet dreams are not a voluntary act like masturbation is Edited November 2, 2004 by StColette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balthazor Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 There is more to it than that I think. Because if just "spilling your seed" is the sin then it would not be a sin for women to masturbate because she doesn't have any seed to spill and her eggs remain intact uneffected and unharmed. Masturbation is a sin because it takes sex, what God created to unite a man and a woman and for procreation, and uses it for purely pleasure. In other words it abuses sex, it is a sin because it is selfish. Because wetdreams are, like StColette said, involuntary you are not committing a sin. .....did you get this every sperm is sacred thought from Monty Python? Just curious.

StColette Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 The verses he is speaking of is: Gn:38:9-10 9 He knowing that the children should not be his, when he went in to his brother's wife, he spilled his seed upon the ground, lest children should be born in his brother's name. 10 And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing: (DRV) The verses can either me taken as meaning masturbation or a form of contraception both of which are not open to creating life. With either way you take the verses a wet dream is still not a sin, because it is not a voluntary action like masturbation or contraception is.

Monty Python is funny because it is absurd [/quote] To a point you are correct just be careful and mindful that we are in a fallen state. Anybody in this temporal world is entirely capable of falling into the grips of Satan. Don't mean to sound harsh, but complacency ain't cool. You relationship with God is not stagnant. It is always either improving or getting worse, with every decision that we make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
