If sin leads to suffering?

... then why does masturbating decrease the risk for prostate cancer in men?

    Attachments lead to suffering, not sin. If you're attached to the act, that would cause suffering/disenchantment.... the act itself is morally neutral. It's the way that you use it/view it that can cause problems. And those problems aren't sin and hell fire... I'm sure you can think of examples where masturbation caused issues... ;)

    Because masturbation is natural and 'sin' is for weirdos.
