You obviously live in a very small world and don't get to see much of the outside. Medical research shows that people with a faith in God are happier, healthier, and wealthier than the naysayers.
As a broad rule of thumb, in this country and culture, this is definitely true.
This is irrelevant. As I made quite clear in post #35, I was not castigating a generality but was instead reporting what I have seen with my own eyes of the sorry fates of a few. certain. weak. individuals.
As I said to cyborg many posts ago in this thread: abusus non tollit usum
"Abuse does not do away with appropriate use"
The post to which #35 was a reply reported the dire results of "porn addiction" on a few individuals, but implied that this proved a rule that porn is universally harmful in this manner. My response was to demonstrate that a few individuals can be destroyed by ANYTHING, even something so generally salubrious as a personal devotion to God.
For the life of me, I cannot understand why so many here have so utterly misconstrued the sequence of thought and meaning.
At this point, I weary of attempting to repair their flawed understanding. I am not Syssiphus, and have rolled this boulder uphill as often as I intend to do.
Good night.
