The Roman's are white
Actually Roman’s fell under whoever had been absorbed into the Roman Empire, so they were all sorts of races.

as for the question at hand, I remember a lot of people saying masturbation was a sin, but I haven’t seen that anywhere in there other than the “don’t spill your seed” verse

So much of the Bible has been b*stardized

K'lal Yisraʾel
The Torah never uses the noun מָשִׁיחַ moshiyah ('a messiah') even once, and the expression הַמָּשִׁיחַ ha-moshiyah ('the messiah') does not occur anywhere at all in the whole of the 24 books of the Jewish Canon—it is a purely rabbinic concept found only in the Talmudim.

I always felt when Jesus said any man lusting after a woman committed adultery in his heart was a good enough argument for not jerkin off.

I always found this interpretation as weird as it gets

how can you commit adultery with a woman who isn't married?

by that logic, any desire for a woman is adultery in your heart

:dwillhuh:

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1 Timothy 6:10



The love part is what people miss and end up misquoting the scripture thereby changing the meaning. Not all translations read "of all evil" too. Several translations read of all kinds of evil.
