Do you have an argument in regard to the article?

Melodramatic. Porno ranks somewhere between jaywalking and drunk driving in the scale of things. More serious than mere jaywalking but not nearly as dangerous as drunk driving.

I agree with you. Our culture is in a sad state of affairs when children know about and access this garbage...but then I shouldn't be surprised because the number of people on a conservative forum who champion porn as a virtue. Regards.

The main problem with Porn is it hits a lot of folks who don't want to see it. Mainly this is by spam e-mail. Everyday I have to waste time deleting all that porn spam e-mail that inevitably hits my inbox. For me it is mainly a pain to delete all that crap but I can see how it could be embarrassing to families with 'puters.

Oh, the horror of porn! If only the government would save us all from this scourge...well, right after it focuses on important stuff...imagine, human beings actually feeling LUST--what a terrible inhuman thing. So unnatural. After we get rid of porn, let's get rid of bikinis, and hormones, too (well, just testosterone). Then we'll adopt sharia law. Then...ummm...oh nevermind.

"It does this as a predator destroys its prey, by eviscerating sexuality of all its inherent grace."

Please be specific. Which part is melodramatic? The entire article? One paragraph? Try to elaborate beyond your 3rd grade level of dismissal.

Where is the government mentioned in the article? Hint: its not. Would you like to try addressing anything the author wrote? None one else seems up for it beyond immature locker room sex talk.

I know the government isn't mentioned, but it's totally transparent where the argument leads.

Ron is now doing commercials for some penis-growth drug, so I guess he's available, but I really hate to look at him, even with his clothes on.

Would you please post the article again tomorrow morning, when all these juvenile pranksters are in bed? They sleep til 2 or 3pm, and when they wake up, their sheets are orange.

Can you show me where that insinuation is made? I think more or less it is your attempt to bait and switch because you have no argument worth espousing in regard to the article topic.

Thanks for a timely essay.

While we are all here enjoying one another's company, I'd like to give a bump to John Paul II's "Theology of the Body."

Why don't you redo the article as an attack on SPAM. That is what I find most irritating about porno, as well as other spam. Which reminds me, why is so much spam e-mail sent out in Korean (or whatever language that is)? Can't they figure out that we can't even READ that damn spam?
