Christian men are having an alarmingly difficult time abstaining from the sexual sins of viewing pornography and committing adultery on their spouses, according to a new national survey. Tragically, married Christian men are failing miserably when it comes to these sins, as 55 percent look at pornography at least once a month and 35 percent cheated on their spouses in an extramarital affair.
"The rate of extramarital affairs appears to have a correlation to frequency of viewing pornography," Hesch proclaimed. "A married person who views porn several times a month is ripe to have an affair.”
Yes it a sad case and I am astonished with the rate that 35% of men cheated on their spouses. It a major issue and has also caused the downfall of Churches and major break up with families.
I am not surprised. To truly be free of temptation is to be in God's camp solidly, but even the disciples had problems with that. Even Paul said as much
Struggling with Sin Romans 7:15
For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good.…
Thing is, I am no better, I seek out the right way but tread in darkness still at times. So I hate not except for the sin, but encourage others to break free (To their best extent)
I know about Leviticus and about all the Christians that use Leviticus to condemn gays. Others apparently don't understand the New Covenant, even though this is a Christian discussion board.
Point being, you can't use Leviticus to condemn gays, while ignoring the rest of the things it forbids. To do so makes you a hypocrite, and dishonest.
Edit: I am not saying you as in YOU, but the colloquial you.
17 Jesus said to them, “It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
Tell me, do you care if the things you do are considered a sin in a religion you don't believe in, don't follow, don't practice? I'm going to guess not.
Then why should non-Christians care if what they are doing is considered a sin in your religion?

Because, silly, jimmie's religion* is the only correct religion and everyone should follow its rules! They are the only rules that matter!
*Or maybe the only correct denomination** - not sure.
**Or maybe his is one of the thousands of non-denominational sub-sects of Christianity....

"A diocesan ministry leader points to the “wake-up call” that brought home the scope of America’s growing obsession with pornography: It was the news that a third-grader at a local Catholic school had shown his classmates graphic pictures on a tablet device and then explained how to erase the history of those images so parents wouldn’t find them."
This is where it gets very sad and depressing.
