For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it. ~Matthew 18:12
The cure is simple, according to Jesus. Cut off your balls!
(Christians made themselves eunuchs for centuries, this is a “traditional christian value”)
The nicene creed had to explicitly ban self castration.
I’m not usually one to support hunting down and suppressing heresies but I’m glad orthodoxy put an end to this practice.
Did they change the stance on stoning women? Or burning women? Or selling women?
Nah. If a man wants to eliminate himself from the genetic pool, let him.
I am no theologian, but I think they only approve of this type of thing if it’s done as a self-punishment or “mortification of the flesh”. Self harm as a punishment for being too horny? Great!
Doing it because it makes you happier and closer to your true self? Sinful! Straight to hell!
But like Jesus and Muhammad said that’s bad or something. Better blame it on the women and make them cover up.
