The Shameful Confession Thread

[Boxlicker101]

I'm not Catholic, but doesn't it have to do with the same reason you are not supposed to masturbate (men in particular)? Isn't there a Bible passage about not wasting "seed"? And isn't the theory that spilling the seed in unfertile ground (using contraceptives) is wasting the seed?

Did I dream this? And if so, then why?

I'm not Catholic either but I believe the injunction against contraception was the story of Onan. He pulled out of his sister-in-law (his brother's widow) and God slew him for that, saying something like "It's better to sew your seed in the belly of a whore than on the ground."

The story about seed landing on infertile ground is actually about preaching and the idea is that some people will hear your words and be moved to stop reading porn, while others, particularly Lit. members will not only go on reading it, but they will write it too.

I don't think there is anything about masturbation and the only problems are that it causes you to go blind and to have hair growing on your hands.

"Belly," to me, implies SWALLOWING ... not fucking.

I'm a recovering catholic, I did all my years of guilt.

You Catholics have it easy. At least Purgatory eventually ends.

That was a bit harsh, eh? Pull out and God will smite you. I might have gone with the rhythm method, too.

Thanks for the clarification, Box! I have heard bits and pieces of Christianity through the years, but I readily admit to a great lack of knowledge. http://www.addis-welt.de/smilie/smilie/diverse/redface.gif

Near where I used to work was a place called "Onan's Carpets".

Never saw anyone in there. I'll bet they were all crusty.

Well, if God is calling the widow a whore, yeah, I'd say that's harsh. She's a widow! They used to live for hundreds of years back in the day, and it was accepted, nay, almost required, I think, to marry your brother's widow.

Forgive me father, for I have had more pussy than you...

It was the custom, maybe even law, that if a man died with no offspring, his closest male relative would be required to impregnate his widow. I don't beliece he would have to marry her, just impregnate her. God was not calling the widow a whore. She was just doing what was required of her. God was just comparing the sin of contraception, saying it was even worse than sex with a prostitute.

By the way, I wonder about all the Christian Fundies who condemn homosexuality and point to verses in the bible in support their cause. Do they use contraception?

It might have been a kindness to us all if their parents had.

Actually, they're being quite clever.

They know they'll never bring most of the world to their way of 'thinking', so they'll just out-breed the rest of the world.

Don't sweat it, Yui, most Christians share you lack of knowledge. The difference is they try to keep it a secret.

I knew it. By the way, nice ass, baldy.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

this is my confession, let's not make too much about it...

I looked upon a priest with lust yesterday, even if he was only on CNN, that's still bad, right?

oh, and my ex-girlfriend is a nun now
though, I doubt it's my fault

What a coincidence, Honey. I am a fat, old bald guy who sits at his computer in his pajamas thinking up smutty stories. But your ass is a lot prettier than mine.

So how come you never post an avatar of your rear, like she does?

You really don't want to see my rear. It's hairy and gross and very pale.

Let the public decide, that's what I say.

I lust after priests. And monks. I think it's the desire to replace the serenity with something a bit less pure. The more devout they are, the more appealing. The whole idea of someone being so overcome with lust for me that they are willing to forsake vows to a high power turns me on. I'm going to Christian hell for this, I can just tell.

Your ex-girl friend is a nun? I have an ex-boyfriend who is now gay, but I don't think the Catholic Church had anything to do with that.

 

[impressive]

I lust after priests.

I have never done so. Honest. My confessional story was just fiction ... all fiction.
