Is wasting seed correct? Uh no. Wasting seed is not one of the 36 sins that mut mentions in the first duff duff bit uh two. There's the 36 sins that are uh wasting seed is not uh one of them. But uh ket is just a certain class of sins. It's not necessarily the uh worst or the only ones that are the worst because uh as the uh and many other places talk about uh the consequence of sins, the consequence of the sin of wasting seed is in the same category as consequence of Shabbat or idol worshipper where they go to gum and don't come out. So it's like a uh a certain class of sins. It's not necessarily the only ones that are bad. Does wasting seed hinder on clim climbing Yakov's ladder? Yes, wasting seed makes a person disconnected from Hashem. But even more so, the Mishnavot says that uh each time a person makes a sin, he creates a prosecuting angel. Each time he makes a mitzvah, he makes a uh angel that protects him, a defending angel. This is typical with all sins with the exception of wasting seed. That say that wasting seed does not make one prosecuting angel but rather millions of them. So when a person wastes seed, when a person commits immorality, they literally create millions of angels that are there to destroy them and entice them to do even more sins and make them have much uh more difficulty in learning Torah, in praying, in keeping mitzvot, uh in being loyal to their wife, and all types of other things. So, it's a uh it's literally like drinking poison uh putting poison in a person's nama. It's the worst thing in the world. Uh in regards to uh LGBT as far as uh the uh Torah commandments is that it's forbidden and uh according to uh the Torah, the punishment for a person that uh goes against Torah in that aspect is has no end. Anyone that wants to know more details can watch my film about ganome and they can see what happens to someone that wastes seed and magnify that even worse for someone that does more than wasting seed like the LGB and all the other filth that's out there. So it's not a matter of whether a bed uh gives a uh penalty or not. It's a matter of uh a kadesh giving a penalty because the penalty that uh the bed could give the worst one is simply one that ends in moments. But the penalty and punishment that Hashem gives it doesn't end in moments. It doesn't end in years. There's end there's punishment that literally does not end. And the uh the the fact that it's forbidden both for men and for women is the forbidden for men is clear. And the for the uh for women also is clear. There you look at the Rambam. Rambam says that the uh when the Torah says don't act like the people of Kanan in Egypt, it's referring to that both for men and for women. It's not just men. In fact, the uh um of Moshe Feinstein Shalom brings the Benishai uh and says that uh when a woman is immoral even uh on her own, she creates uh the same as just like a man. So the damage is uh exponentially higher than people realize. There's no such thing as that that's their opinion. This is this is this is our sages. If a person does not believe in even one word uh of the Torah, not just the written Torah, but even the oral Torah, the the Talmud, doesn't even uh believe in one uh that's there. It's considered anos which is in itself without any other sin removes a person from we are meant to be a light unto the nations not to follow their misguided practices. Remember every Jew has to remember that he's a Jew and she's a Jew. We don't celebrate non-Jewish holidays even if they seem harmless. It's a zil disrespect to the Torah and could lead to chal Hashem, desecration of God's name. Stick to our holy Torah in our own holidays. That's the path of a true Jew.
