Masturbation

Masturbation is fun and doesn't harm anyone. In the 19th and early 20th Centuries children and adults were made to feel guilty and scared over it. They were taught that it would weaken them and put them at risk of early death. None of this really happened  but people imagined it did. Religious people taught that masturbation caused any range of diseases, sometimes fatal. This range could include blindness, broken limbs, and even things that people usually think are accidents, like homosexuality, or sicknesses. Masturbation also was supposed to cause physical weakness, feeblemindedness and insanity. The sex drive is so strong that people still did it. It just made people feel awful because they couldn’t stop. This really does show that if there is a God he's a bit of a git.

"Ministers, priests, and clergy have threatened eternal punishment for everything from masturbation to heresy, homosexuality to adultery, working on the Sabbath to questioning the Bible. Needless to say, rather than being liberating such threats have the effect of repressing and diminishing the human spirit."

In the 21st Century most sensible/normal/sane people are relaxed about masturbation. Various faiths and various Christian sects still teach that masturbation is a sin against an imaginary God and a taboo. Devout religious people suffer agonies of sexual frustration when they can control the urge to masturbate. They suffer agonies of guilt and remorse when they can’t stop themselves doing it.

And they won’t let themselves see how religion is making them unhappy.
