The truth is that Ed couldn’t care less what you do in your bedroom. He’s concerned about the ripe addiction of pornography that is nearly pervasive in our society and the ultimate impact this addiction has on society.

Scientific studies show that a teenager addicted to porn could seriously impair the development of his cerebral cortex. When he views pornography the reaction he stimulates goes straight to the “old brain” or amygdala passing any cognitive functions. Essentially, porn acts the same way as heroin.

We have no intention of outlawing pornography but we believe that the civil litigation will bring public awareness to the issue and make is much more difficult for producers and distributors to profit from an addiction that is one of the primary causes of family breakup today.

Please cite the Scientific Studies, and who funded them.

Thanks

If I remember correctly, this is what happened to me when I just saw a fully clothed good-looking girl. Especially if she showed even the slightest interest in me.
