Pornography is a plague on our society. Even so a lot of people think porn is harmless and has no real detrimental effects on the world today. However, it is practically impossible not to be affected by pornography, legal or not. This video shows some college students talking about their opinion on pornography.
Pornography degrades marriages. Pornography users generally view material that shows attractive women performing almost any type of act with any number of men (or animals, for that matter). The users begin to expect that their wives should also perform acts that are at least a little more 'adventurous’ or 'experimental' than those they are used to, and will become dissatisfied when their non-using partners will not live up to their porn-induced fantasies.
Pornography is addictive. Several studies have shown that people, as with drug users, who view pornography after a time develop a craving for ever more deviant materials to maintain their previous level of sexual arousal. Many persons even begin to employ more violent methods in their sexual relations.
Ted Bundy. Ted Bundy, an infamous serial killer responsible for the murder of as many as 36 to 50 young women and girls, granted an interview with Dr. James Dobson on January 24, 1988, the day before he was executed. Ted Bundy stated in this interview, "In the beginning, it [pornography] fuels this kind of thought process ... Like an addiction, you keep craving something that is harder, harder, something which gives you a greater sense of excitement--until you reach a point where the pornography only goes so far, you reach that jumping-off point where you begin to wonder if maybe actually doing it would give you that which is beyond just reading or looking at it."
That statement makes it seem like addiction to pornography is a progressive disease, not unlike alcoholism or drug addiction.
There is hope. Like alcoholism and drug addiction, addiction to pornography is treatable through twelve step programs like Celebrate Recovery. So it seems that in both social and financial terms, prevention and rehabilitation makes the most sense.
Divinity Resources Inc. hopes to help with the prevention aspect of the problem. Most pornography sites are greedy enough to allow anyone to advertise on their sites. Even Christian advertising. Paying for add space on the pornography site its self allows us to witness to the addict in that dark room where he thinks no one can see him. We hope that by placing scripture in the right spot some addicts will turn from their sin and toward the only one who can fill that whole in their chest, GOD.
Ad space isn't cheap but it gets to the addict in the places we've never been able to get to before.
