It was described to me that Phil very bravely leaned in to the masturbation, stating that all men are given strong sexual urges from God, and that it is more righteous for an unmarried man to indulge in masturbation rather than fall into sexual sin (such as adultery, prostitution, etc).Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑March 10th, 2023, 11:48 amJacob didn't go into any detail, but he did say that someone recorded what was said.
Like I said, I didn't see it so I don't want to misrepresent it, so take this second hand version with a grain of salt, but I think that was close to the argument. He was quite persuasive to all the attendees of the meeting, from what I was told, and if masturbation isn't a sin (lol see my thread on that subject elsewhere in the forum; at the end of the day no one was able to cite a scripture showing that it was a sin, for what it's worth...) then I can even see some logic to his argument.
Still, it's pretty hilarious that Jacob refers to it as 'Phil's Doctrine of Masturbation'. Makes me chuckle every time. Yeah, I'm immature.
