Sometimes the news article says it all:
SALAMANCA – A man cut off his own penis and threw it in a toilet ‘so he would stop sinning’.
The 30-year-old was recovering in the Hospital Clinico Universitario in Salamanca in western Spain.
Doctors said his condition was ‘stable’ and he was not in danger of losing his life.
The man, from Salamanca, cut off his penis with a knife on Thursday morning.
The local newspaper La Gaceta reported when relatives called emergency services, he told ambulance workers he did it “so would not sin any more”.
A relative found the man, who has not been named, in the house where they lived in the city and raised the alarm.
He was bleeding heavily.
The newspaper said it was not known if the man’s penis could be sewn back.
There was also a suggestion he may be suffering from psychological problems.
Gee, ya think? I mean, sure, that’s one solution to one possible sin, but there’s so many other ways to do it that I’m afraid that’s just not going to cut it… so to speak.
And don’t forget kiddies, our pal Jesus said that just thinking about a sin is a sin, you don’t actually have to take any actions:
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Matthew 5:28.
I guess that might be open to interpretation, but I always took it to mean, don’t even look (or think about it), and forget about touching. Last time I checked, looking lustfully requires some thought.
Guess that dude is fucked, er, screwed, er, I mean he can’t win.
