It is not available only for those who seek it out, it is shoved in the face of ALL; in supermarkets, on billboards, Internet pop-ups and television

I'll grant you the internet pop-ups, but you only get those if you go on adult sites. They don't come out of nowhere. As for the rest, I can't really think of any example where actual pornography appears in supermarkets, billboards or television (at least, not regular television).

am so discouraged by those in my age group especially, as well as those of you who really think that casual sex with multiple partners is entertainment rather than a sin.

Do you mean sex with multiple partners at once? Very few of us have actually engaged in that, I would wager. If you mean seeing it on video? That might be a sin, I suppose, if you believe in that sort of thing.

"I'll grant you the internet pop-ups, but you only get those if you go on adult sites."

I beg to differ. They pop up out of the blue, not only on my computer, but I have seen them come out of nowhere on my husband's work computer, where they are supposed to be filtered.

"Do you mean sex with multiple partners at once?"

Perhaps, but not necessarily. Porn stars have casual sex with dozens if not hundreds of partners.

"As for the rest, I can't really think of any example where actual pornography appears in supermarkets..."

I live on a military post, where porn mags are rampant, and are not often covered up. Perhaps nipples and vaginas aren't shown, but it is definitely porn, definitely offensive, and definitely shoved in my face by businesses that endorse/ sell it.

Some of those checkout magazine covers come fairly close ("Nine easy ways to make him hot!", etc.)
