Blank Transparent Square

I have to be honest, I'm not entirely sure what being a furry *exactly* includes or means... But I can say that I'm a pretty devoted Christian, and I've never really heard it mentioned that it's a sin before.

Same, Some people are just trollin them, Probably

Just a headsup, Furry means just people who have an interest in anthropomorphic animals (Sonic, Crash etc), Yet, Some stereotypes ruin it

Ah, yeah, reading through all the comments, that makes sense. Thanks!

Fairly sure I am a furry and a Christian, but I wish I was less engaged with furry activities and thoughts.

To have an interest in the antro characters and storytelling is one thing, but to put on the suit and mask and wanting to become my fursona gives me a sour feeling that I am not as I should be. Ask any furry if they would want to become their fursona and they tend to seriously consider the thought. God made us in his image. (Genesis 1:27 "So God created mankind in his own image..male and female"). It is not right for me to want to become animal-like when I was made to be a higher creature more connected with God.

Jesus said that we are worth more than many sparrows. Matthew 10:31, Luke 12:7

Almost every other furry I've met are very welcoming and LGBTQ+ positive, which is another thing to consider if you think they could be a mission field or an insidious influence on the truth we believe.

Vices and evils are often described in literature as animal-like. A conman is like a crafty fox, A raging brute is like a bull, A wrathful person has a Lion-heart, A jittery and wavering person is like a bird glancing at every new thing, A talkative person that speaks nonsense is like a yapping dog, A violent bandit is like a wolf, A sensual person that wallows in lust is like a pig in muck.

Concerning antro characters in storytelling, Jesus is both the Lion of Judah and the Passover Lamb. these are believed to be symbolic of the qualities that God possesses.

Jesus says in Matthew 10:16 "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves." this literary device is called a simile. the qualities that we should strive toward are innocence and wisdom.

You need wisdom. Pray to God to give you wisdom and seek His desires before you make a decision to become a furry.

Most of the problem is rule 34. There is literal God p0rn. Search it up.

I guess that's fair

It’s because of the pornography and sexual aspects of it. I really wish it could just be cute little furry creatures like you see many people draw, even I’ve drawn those, but the culture behind it is a cover for lust. It’s very sad how people can twist things for evil like that. :(
I’m not saying that you are doing those things but the culture behind it is like that.

As a furry myself, I have to disagree, That's just rule 34 of the internet, People make porn out of everything, The true core of the fandom is actually quite friendly and nice, Hell, Even kids can go there

Blame it on the internet

Yeah, I know. I love the drawings that cloud does btw, I think they are cute. But the porn is what these people are talking about when they target this user.

Yeah, It's only a small percentage though
Honestly, Anyone would love the fandom if not for that stereotype

Right, I mean it’s seriously cute. They’re called furries for heaven’s sake! But Murphy's law ya know.

Ye

They're just trollin ya, It ain't even a bad thing to begin with

It honestly depends.
I've interacted with furries before, and found two categories- clean and dirty. Clean furries keep it a hobby of sorts- fursuits and OCs. Dirty ones turn it carnal- that is certainly a sin. Forgivable as always, but a sin.

Any sexual impurity (that is sex outside of marriage to the opposite sex) is a sin against Christ. God tells us specifically that any sexual gratification outside marriage is a sin. If you get any sexual gratification from dressing up as animals, it would definitely be a sin against God.

Romans 1:26-27

They don't do that tho, It's just a stereotype
