Where Did the Rumor Originated that Stated Masturbation Causes Blindness?

I have always wondered that. I am glad I am married though because my eyes have gotten worse.

In the early days of the catholic church they realized the average intelligence was at a minimal....Masturbation was viewed as an act of sin, or anything they couldnt be in control of ,sex out of wedlock..The church made up a bunch of scary hocus pocus to keep people in line... You know the whole ridiculous if you dont do as we say youll burn in hell bit....The church also believed women with an opinion should be declared witches and be burnt on the cross .. Amazingly enough today there are still many fools on this earth that still believe shit like this....Like god needs 15% of you annual income...Or if you come from Asia and were raised to worship Buda youll burn in hell because you dont beliveve in Jesus Christ. Curling Im not trying to flame you, just trying to stir the pot ....

Pretty sure it was started by some Nun that got a load right in her eyes.. She was blinded for awhile and decided it would never happen again. I always aim for the eyes..

Sorry it took so long to answer. I had to find my bifocals.

Seriously though....I think masturbation is fairly healthy. I do it too much but it makes me happy and who gets hurt?

Your not flaming me I am not catholic so I don't believe in the catholic doctrine.

But according to the Bible the statement you made about Asia and the Budist is correct that is why Christians send missionaries to those countries to give them the opportunity to hear the truth.

Sorry, man. Its all my fault. Back in the early 80's I got in a jerkfest that went on for weeks. At about the 56 day mark with no food and only water, I started loosing my sight. Everybody watching started thinking it was the jerking off but actually it was the starvation. My sight returned to normal after a couple weeks but the people that didn't stick around or keep in touch still think it was the masturbation. I held the title for 8 yrs until some amish guy cam out of retirement. Bastard. Now all I do is watch porn, eat cheetos, and practice. I'll be back you bearded mother fucker, I'll be back.

the only way I can see it causing blindness is if you sit there staring and porn on your computer monitor for 10 hours a day. my eyes get sore after like 30 minutes
