Then you are apparently too close to pornography to have an objective opinion.

Plenty of RINO porn apologists on this thread

Pretty strong words from a newbie. You should bear in mind that not everyone who votes Republican is a member of the Christian Taliban.

there's a group freepers who are hypocritical sociopaths, that want everybody to tow the line except just don't pick on their perversions....

Hypocrites? How so?

If only they had sons in the gay porn field.....we might see an attitude change.

If I had sons who were alcoholics, I wouldn't demand that alcohol be banned. Same with porn.

maybe if they had young teenage sons stripping for the local gay bar....

That, of course, would be illegal. Once they become adults, though, I wouldn't rely on the law to protect them from themselves.

Who is Jebus? And BTW, you couldn't kill Him if he hadn't allowed it.

BWAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAH! What a dumbass you are. The 'Prayer For the State" was created by OWK and is not a parody the Lord's Prayer anyway. Damn you are dumb.

You want violation of the rights of others - how about all the women and children who are forced into sex slavery because of pornography.

Anyone who forces others to have sex against their will is comitting a crime. What's your point?

Christian Taliban?

Know any Christians who have executed women for walking out the front door without a male escort?

I didn't think so.

How do you know? Maybe some of your beliefs are wrong before God. Child porn is disgusting, vile, and illegal. You can't impose your personal sense of morality on people where the act you are complaining of does not violate other peoples' rights, regardless of your personal belief.

If you don't like it, don't watch it. At the same time, just because you don't like it, don't stop me from watching it. Some of you guys here are so hypocritical. You want Uncle Sam to say nothing about gun control, etc etc, but as soon as porn comes up you scream for the Gov't to regulate our lives.

Not porn apologists. It's more like not wanting someone else to dictate what we can or cannot read or view.

We came to the conclusion that most guys in their late 20's, 30's and 40's who watch porn are probably doing so because their sex life stinks and they are not getting enough from their significant other. These guys, including myself, are tired of hearing the same old tired excuses and find it easier to watch porn than to beg for sex from their wife who would find it more pleasing to go visit her parents or spend time with her friends' kids or something.

Life in the fantasy world is free of the risk of rejection that has to be faced in the real world. In fanatasy world you're always the king, every whim is fulfilled ...

In the real world it's having a decent relationship with your wife/gf/S.O is hard, and sometimes painful, work.

Having spent years in fantasy world before doing the hard, painful work intimate relationship requires, I'll take the later.

In my porn fueled fantasy world there was never any risk of rejection. The real world, however, was the only place where the acceptance I was really after, warts and all, and coming from another human being, was possible.

I'm never going back.

I read his first post, and it didn't come close to your wildly exaggerated interpretation of it.

tsk.

water is found in every carcinoma and sarcoma, thus: water causes cancer.

that's what their arguments generally boil down to.

by all means: let the government crack down on slave-trading, pimping, child-pornography, etc (all, btw, already illegal)... leave the entirely adult and entirely consensual stuff alone.

Please excuse me. You stole Psalms 23 and used a prayer and praise to God to support your haterd of anyone DARING to tell you that you are wrong.

"The purveyors of pornography repeatedly challenge us to prove that pornography causes violent crime," said Rep. Harris. "I challenge them to prove that it does not."

Rep. Harris, I challenge you to prove that you are not a deep-cover al-Qaeda agent -- hell, I challenge you to prove that you are not a deep-cover spy for an invading force of space aliens.

How do imbeciles like this get into positions of responsibility?

Actually, Porn is wrong, it denegrates women, it brings on the animal instinct and those that cannot control thier "urges" results in someone getting hurt. Porn hurts someone, somewhere.

I for one do not like Porn, have I seen it, yep and who hasn't at one time. For some, porn starts in the bra ads in the newspaper, for others it starts in the Victoria Secret Catalog or Frederick's of Hollywood.

It is progressive, and it does lead to deviant behavior. It is also a mockery to God's creation, if you are a Jew, as you stated you were in an earlier post, then this topic is off limits for you as well. God said to not participate in it because of the problems it creates in the future.

Fantasy... Jesus said on the Mount, if you think of a woman with lustful thoughts, you have commited adultery already. YOu think it, you fantasize about it, then you will eventually do it.
