Since you're apparently hung-up on the term, just what do you believe constitutes pornography?

The tobacco and alcohol lobbies among others would argue against that allegation.

It doesn't matter what political lobbies might say. I'm in favor of tobacco and alcohol and use - these are not dangerous in moderation - but neither belongs to the category of constitutionally protected behavior.

That is the same kind of thinking that Hitler indulged in....

What a cop-out! I asked what YOU consider pornography since you seem so hung-up on it. The only things I KNOW are pornographic would be things involving children or people who are not consenting adults.
Fortunately we've made some progress since Jefferson's day, eh?

And how does what YOU might consider pornography not?

"Consent" has nothing to do with the definition of pornography and you know it. Neither does age, for that matter.
One of the many pernicious and underhanded tricks of liberalism is that of moving the goal-posts by redefining words. A fetus is not a baby, abortion is not murder, etc. Well, pornography is still pornography. I use a standard working English definition:
1: the depiction of erotic behavior (as in pictures or writing) intended to cause sexual excitement
2: material (as books or a photograph) that depicts erotic behavior and is intended to cause sexual excitement
But if you don't like that, I'm flexible! Give me another word to use in place of "pornography" for the above definitions and I'll switch over just for you.
"I figured a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers, but I couldn't get it past the congress... Build a great, big, large fence — 150 or 100 mile long — put all the lesbians in there... Do the same thing with the queers and the homosexuals and have that fence electrified so they can't get out… And you know what, in a few years, they'll die out ... God have mercy. It makes me pukin' sick to think about — I don't even whether or not to say this in the pulpit — can you imagine kissing some man?"
So what do you think? Does Pastor Worley have a good plan for dealing with the homosexual problem?
It's enough to bring back anti-sodomy laws, laws prohibiting the corruption of minors, and laws against indecency and pornography. Banning pornography alone would virtually destroy "gay culture".
You think oral and anal sex should be illegal for heterosexuals? Or just homosexuals?
And I don't know too many lesbians who consume pornography the way straight guys do. If pornography were to suddenly become illegal, straight guys would be a lot angrier than homosexual women or men.
Didn't listen but obviously if he said what is being claimed he really is not much of a pastor.
Seeing as your post things that fall in line with his thinking, I find it odd that you would say that.
