Hmmm and this is me after being hit with the subject of porn being ok . This is a public forum. If porn is a subject that is open game, then so is the bible. Freedom of speech, right? I did say in the beginning of my discussion that MY belief was based on MY Faith and that I am not saying that others have that same belief. I have just as much right to answer the question as anyone else does, am I not correct??? I am not throwing anything anymore than you are.

Thanks for the support. Another thing that bothers me is people get really offended when you start showing research and sharing links. To hear Ted Bundy speak out before his execution regarding porn is proof that what it does to the human mind is not good yet people continue and justify it as if there was nothing wrong.
Oh well, you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink. To each his own. I am so thankful that my husband and I are NOT caught up in the deadly lie of porn.
Thanks for sharing...

The porn industry preys on men and women who come from broken homes and need money to live and eat. Many wind up using drugs or even going as far as committing suicide because they can't deal with the lifestyle and they have nobody to turn to. Really, the suicide rate in the porn industry is sky high. Unfortunately, telling people the truth falls on deaf ears because people are so diconnedted from each other today. RIP Shauna...
But if I want to mention the bible in my answer or response to the question I have a right to do that. Just like I would have the right to mention "burgers and fries" in this thread even though it isn't the food forum.. You are really getting ridiculous here. I can say what I want on any forum, it is a free country. I didn't say anything about anyone else having to believe what I believed I just answered a question just like everyone else did. Sounds like you could be uncomfortable with my answer for some reason.

...and one more thing. The subject of porn does not belong on the Religion and Philosophy forum. It is a no brainer that most people posting on that forum is aware that porn is wrong.

Well that would tell me its not a good match and I should not be sharing that type of relationship with them. Right?
Maybe. But when it comes to relationships it is usually a balance of the pluses vs the minus right? Some people find a perfect partner in every way, some accept a certain trade off. I remain single because I won't trade off criteria which means I probably will never commit to someone because finding the *perfect* everything in a mate that has the criteria of awesome body , great sex, honesty, responsibilty, loyalty, personality, individuality, not a digger, not with multable kids to support, not a substance abuser, not a mental case, not clingy, is pretty much fantasy.
So I go for the right now, the Ms right now. However that thing called love is the varible that can strike when you weren't expecting it, it hasn't struck me in a while but when it does a person usually is willing to forgive some of what they usually would consider a "deal breaker".
But if I want to mention the bible in my answer or response to the question I have a right to do that....
Yes, but it would depend upon the nature of the religious reference. If it's just a reference to religion then you're correct -- perfectly fine. But if the post devolved into citing bible verses and/or theological discussions of why someone thinks porn violates some religious or ethical imperative then the mods would likely either steer things to stay on a Relationships topic or move the thread to the Religion forum.
Go ahead...laugh all you want for now anyway. Enjoy life, live it to the fullest using every women, man or child that you want. You have a free will and a free choice. And by the way I am not posting about religion but about a personal relationship with the Living God who Created you and I. Sorry that you think of it as RELIGION but I don't. He does Love you whether you believe it or not.

You keep saying that Ted Bundy is proof of what porn does. Porn industry is bigger than mainstream Hollywood, which means there are alot of people who check it out. Most people don't go off on a violent spree from seeing or doing a quickie to a photo or vid. You are using one example of a lunatic and trying to tie it to something millions of others use with no crazy after effects.
