Porn and the deviant sexual behavior addressed in the article , rather than being the sign of freedom some here at FR claim it is, threatens both our freedom and our civilization. The central act of civilization is the recognition of another person as a human being. This behavior suspends if not ends that act of recognition because it dehumanizes both its object and its subject.
Pray for our country.

Dehumanization in this instance encourages those who accept it in it's many other forms; abortion, embryonic stem cell research, cloning, pedophilia, euthanasia and the "ethics" of Singer, to name a few.
