Prostitution harms people. Viewing filmed prostitution makes you an accesory to the crime. The crime was committed for your enjoyment.

Whether or not you are moral in your heart is not for the state to know, but your actions are for the state to regulate.

To say that people should not be forced to obey the law because it would take away their free will is to suggest that temporal authority has no right to enforce any law.

We are all still waiting for you to provide the laws that make the production of porn illegal.

And again, as previously pointed out several times, if the production of porn is ILLEGAL as you claim, then why is Vivid Video traded on the NYSE?

Face facts, porn is legal. Period.

Prostitution is not illegal in every jurisdiction in this country. Neither is the making of porn. Unless you have some evidence proving otherwise?

"To say that people should not be forced to obey the law because it would take away their free will is to suggest that temporal authority has no right to enforce any law."

People that are not obeying the current pornography laws are prosecuted when caught. Most porn available to the public is legal. Based on that your entire premise falls flat on its face.

The only way for you to continue down the path you have chosen is to advocate a change in the current law that makes all pornography illegal. You must advocate a change in the current law to mirror a moral stance. Now, where do you get the basis for the moral stance advocating a change in the current laws?
