How, exactly, is porn destroying America

From within plain and simple. From the family unit to the churches, it is the hidden sin that no one has to know about but has absolute outside consequences. It has destroyed families, marriages, pastors, men and women alike. By causing us to give into our most base physical needs.

But of course, we 'want' to do it, there's not a law against it, so it's okay right? There is a higher moral law that this nation once followed but no more. We're too advanced socially to do anything like that, aren't we?

You may like to believe that, but it's not true. Humans have always been promiscuous, no matter what church they belonged to or how piously they preached their own chastity. It just used to be kept much quieter in the past.

Name a decade, name a century, it doesn't matter. Husbands and wives were still cheating on each other, and single people were having sex with multiple partners.

Hey, remember Caligula?

Guns cause people to shoot innocents. Guns cause people to give into their most murderous physical impulses.

What's wrong with giving into our base physical needs? I kind of like breathing, eating, drinking, sitting on the john, etc.

Porn doesn't always destroy families. But it's true that a not insignificant number of families has been destroyed by porn. We have a couple of them in our church. It's particularly devastating to the children.
