Still heavily involved in the occult, but go figure, an atheist, I became very, very demonized. I got to know the worst demons from hell on a personal level. They impressed upon me things that, as a child, I would not, nor could not have imagined in my worst imagination nor from my life's young experience. By the grace of God and because of my family, very thankfully, I did not carry out the images and promptings I received from demons. The things that they fed into my mind and soul cannot be described as they were so foul, so horrible and so powerful that unless they have subjected you to them, you could never understand nor fathom.
I walked in a black cloud that the students of my school were well aware of. I was so tormented by demons that I stayed awake all night and dozed in the school bathrooms. When I was about 18 all the demonic torment left me. I have no idea why, but my guess would be that a pastor and his wife, that had befriended me at a diner, may have been praying for me. Thank God I was suddenly free from agonizing torment for the first time in years.
At college, still an atheist, Christians were led to talk to me about The Gospel, whom I mocked mercilessly, telling them that they were stupid and naive beyond belief, but somehow I decided to read The Bible so that I could know what it was that they were talking about and become better educated. Well my salvation story is a very amazing story that would take maybe a book to tell about, but saved I became.
That was over 30 years ago and though the time lines blur and memories dim, I still remember how awful the demons from hell were, that at times I could physically see them, what they impressed upon me and how tormented I was. I will be very glad to someday be in heaven and have those incredibly evil, demented, horrible beyond being able to convey, images and promptings from hell, that at one time, long ago, tormented me be forever erased from my mind. Thank God, I only remember them rarely when addressing or thinking about such things as pornography.
I still remember meeting a classmate several years after high school who said that he was amazed that I was the same person and did not recognize me at all, as the last time he saw me it was as though I was in a black cloud that he thought he could actual see around me and now was so happy and bright.
So it was a combination of the occult and pornography that caused me to be, at such a young age, so horribly accosted by demons. I know the kind of demons that people such as Bundy were/are possessed with and no normal person can begin to imagine what they are like. And sometimes it just takes the right combination of circumstances for them to come into your life, even at a very young age, and cause you to be nearly powerless against them. It is only by God,s grace that somehow I was able to withstand them but at the cost of being horribly and terribly tormented.
So I think that many of you who think Bundy was making things up, do not understand the spiritual component behind sins such as pornography. Sometimes someone, who knows why that individual, can become oppressed and/or possessed with demonic powers and that is the difference. I don't necessarily expect anyone who hasn't been taken over by evil spirits to understand, as you really couldn't. So if you want to accuse me of taking his side, because I expect that there may very likely be something to his claims that pornography played a role in his horrific crimes, I will understand. But what you may not understand is that when you do evil things, you may open yourself up to demons from hell and if they are powerful enough they can take a person over, begin to control their thoughts, emotions and even their actions.
This is one of the reasons that we should not even lightly get involved and support evil, because we do not know what we may be contributing to. Any discerning person, who cares about decency, even a little, must stop playing with pornography or for that matter any evil because behind it are hosts of demons.
To say that pornography played an important role in evolving Bundy into a man that did the unspeakable crimes that he did is not the same thing as saying that he doesn't have responsibility for his sins. Many things play into the sins committed by people but we are all still guilty before God for the sins we commit. Our only hope being Jesus Christ and the blood that He shed for us for the forgiveness of our sins.
Not everyone who argues that pornography didn't have anything to do with Bundy's heinous beyond imagination crimes has done, or does do pornography, but if you have, or do pornography, do not continue to do it, or excuse it as not harmful, because it is very, very evil.
Friend, you are reading things into what has not been said, and not listening to what has been said.
I never said nonviolent porn is not sinful. Saying something is not the same as something else does not mean both things are not both bad.
Further it is clear for the vast majority of folks - not Bundy or susceptible people in your earlier condition - do not naturally progress from nonviolent to violent porn. We do not have tens of millions of Ted Bundy’s and their female equivalents roaming the country killing dozens of people.
You are projecting.
