FRC Releases Study on Effects of Porn

The Family Research Council has released a study that shows the devastating impact of pornography on families and individuals, including children. You can download the entire study here.

An article regarding the study at LifeSite News states:

The study notes that the main defenses against pornography are close family life, a good marriage and good relations between parents and children, coupled with deliberate parental monitoring of Internet use.

The study found that traditionally, government has kept a tight lid on sexual traffic and businesses, but in matters of pornography that has almost completely ceased, except where child pornography is concerned.

It concludes with a sobering note about the costs of porn to society. ” Given the massive, deleterious individual, marital, family, and social effects of pornography, it is time for citizens, communities, and government to reconsider their laissez-faire approach,” says Fagan.

Those interested in getting spiritual help in overcoming a porn addiction can visit Steve Gallagher’s Pure Life Ministries. They promote a Gospel-centered solution to breaking the bondage of porn.

   I think it is time to get rid of all pornography, and to get the people that is behind all these filth they put on cellphones, televitions, books on our shops shelves, because children as young as 8 years are looking at this stuff, what went wrong with society that they just can't get rid of this. Childrens lifes are at stake here they are suppose to be the leaders for tomorow but if they get this mixed up i don't want to see the future leaders it's going to be a mess…………..
