"Her gift for Valentines? Stop looking at porn," proclaim billboards put up by NetAccountability, a nonprofit software company that aims to help Christians confront the "secret sin" of pornography.

No porn? No masturbation? No sex outside of marriage?

A healthy young man might as well just saw his own head off.

I don't think I want something called XXXChurch showing up in my browser history file.

Thanks anyway.

For 20 years, he found himself drawn to pornographic Web sites, movies and magazines, he said.

Wow, he was looking at porno websites before the web was even invented. That's dedication! What a putz.

Which head?

You really walked into that one, chin-first.

[adam_az]

Rather, he was looking at web porn before Algore invented the internet. ;)

[adam_az]

Which chin?

"Her gift for Valentines? Stop looking at porn,"

Cool, but how do I gift wrap it?

When women commit to satisfying their men on demand, men will give up porn. When women quit withholding sex and avoiding sex, men will quit porn. When ugly and/or poor men get treated with love, and somehow marry, men will give up porn. When married women see areason to maintain their loooks after marriage, men will give up porn.
Step up to the plate ladies or quit knocking the competition.

There's a good joke here, somewhere, about "my rod and my staff," and "comforting"... hmmmmmmmm... :)

Many here are making fun of this....

..but it's not a laughing matter!

Did you know Ted Bundy started on his road of murder, madness and mayhem by looking at & becoming addicted to porn.

I would say most predators are porn addicts....

..and consider Westerfield, of last year, who is on death row for the murder of a small child....
..he downloaded porn.

And I know of a man in my former church.....sang in the choir, taught Sunday School, held a respectable and well paying job.....

..he's now in prison.

It started with porn....

..it ended with him sexually abusing his own young sons.

Now, he's divorced, his wife has the children & will soon move out of town, his parents are heartbroken.....

Does this sound like a laughing matter to you!

The article is right.

Porn is insidious....and hidden.

Hidden, until it gains control.

I'm not saying your post doesn't bear merit. However, from a Christian perspective, the issue of pornography is something that a man (or a woman) needs to talk to God about, agree with what He has to say about it, and then do what He says. It won't be easy, but again, from a Christian perspective, it takes the strength of the Lord to live the life of a Christian.

I agree that an unresponsive spouse is a frustrating situation, but adultery is adultery, whether its in the mind or the act. A man and wife are one flesh, and when he (or she) defiles himself, he's defiling her (as well as the rest of the Body as well as the recipient of the thought).

I'm not trying to sound "holier than thou" because I've been both a porn viewer (repentant & forgiven) as well as a broken-hearted spouse (who has also been forgiven).

Maybe some men. I NEVER held back on my ex-husband- I was accomodating and adventurous. Even he will admit that. My looks did NOT go. After having two children with him, I maintained my figure and my looks. My ex is/was a porn addict. Nothing I did was enough for him. He still had to have his porn- and sneak and lie about it.

Why did he have to sneak and lie about it? Because you didn't want to let him have it? Because you made it into an issue that you could fight over?

It's not about what the ladies want.

It's what God wants: a Holy People.
