What do you want people to comment on this?
Good for him that he left that life. There are also people who stopped drinking when they found Jesus. He that is forgiven little, loves little.

That was a good response. Porn can destroy people and many need to know about it. His book and the web sites are good for people to know about.

Watching porn seems to be a real problem for conservative religious people:

Porn in the USA: Conservatives are biggest consumers - science-in-society - 27 February 2009 - New Scientist
Those states that do consume the most porn tend to be more conservative and religious than states with lower levels of consumption, the study finds.

"Some of the people who are most outraged turn out to be consumers of the very things they claimed to be outraged by.

Church-goers bought less online porn on Sundays – a 1% increase in a postal code's religious attendance was associated with a 0.1% drop in subscriptions that day. However, expenditures on other days of the week brought them in line with the rest of the country,

I think religious people will admit porn is a problem for them since they see it as sinful. Non-religious people don't have much of a problem with porn even though it may distrupt their marriage and life. They don't see it as sinful.

Not sure who is more at risk but if you know you have a problem you get help for it.

I don't know what happened to my last post on this, says it was moved but I don't know to where. ???
An inspiring story. I'm glad he escaped from that trap of Satan.

There will, of course, be posters who will deride this incident. Their father is not the same as our Father..

Apparently it's only a problem on Sundays when they have to go to church. They make up for it the other days of the week by downloading more porn. I think there may be just a little self-righteous hypocrisy involved don't you?

You might find these stories 'inspiring'. A quick google search shows there are a lot straight porn actors who 'turned to god'. Sorry they aren't about 'gay' people. Funny that you managed to find a 'gay' story to post and not all these others that were so easy to find.

Well the first article I posted on here about this man had a link to other porn stars who got out of the business when they turned to Christ.

I don't know what happened to my first post. Says it was moved but I can't find it. ?????
