On January 26, 2012, speaking on his radio show on KKLA-FM, Christian radio host Frank Pastore took a phone call from a 28-year-old virgin using the synonym of “Mary” who wanted to know if masturbation was a sin.”
Pastore responded with “of course it’s a sin.” His recommendation to avoid sinning was having people get married in their teens, as he did.
His guest Joshua Moore from abstinence organization ‘Reality Check LA’ said that pornography and masturbation were the “same thing.”
Joanna Hyatt, also from ‘Reality Check LA’, claimed that solo masturbation “steals” from God’s plan of sex.
None of the three could name one verse in the bible, which actually calls masturbation a sin, but instead pointed to Matthew 5:28 in the bible where Jesus says “But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart,” which does not mention the act of masturbation.
Joanna Hyatt and Joshua Moore also talked about all the diseases that can come from oral sex via the HPV virus, but did not mention the HPV vaccination that young girls can take for the HPV virus, which guards against the major strands. This vaccination is recommended by the CDC.
