My last post was awkwardly worded, but I hope that you understood my point.
The Bible is an excellent source of education material. There’s a whole lot of wisdom in that book.
2 Timothy 3:16 “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;”
This passage sums up my belief, too. It doesn’t say every single word in the Bible is perfect or that God wrote it or that every translation is flawlessly done, but I have no doubt the Bible is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. I also believe most translations are faithful enough to the original to be equally profitable. I don’t get hung up on minute details. I try to read in context.
In regards to porn, I’m a heterosexual who can look at a naked woman without wanting to “do her” (as some so crudely say). Just because I’m not immediately driven to sin by porn, that doesn’t mean it’s good for me to view the stuff. It’s better not to feed temptation with porn, and those natural hungers are better directed toward my wife in the first place. One might not get burnt by playing with fire (porn), but it’s probably wiser to avoid the fire altogether.
