My definition for pornography is a widely accepted one that ranges across the different types of porn. The reason I cant use intentional pollution of morals or society in my definition is because I don’t believe people create porn with that as their intention, at least not on a regular or consistent basis.

On the fact that the world was not meant for Christianity I would agree, but for other reasons. I believe that Christianity is the unfortunate but necessary result of the fall. i think science is Amazing! I also see it as a way of coming into truth and knowledge. Christians who believe otherwise are fools. We necessarily live in a world of science and we should embrace it. Where I have problems with science are where faith in science is held as fact. In Christianity I am more than wiling to hit the mystery button on many things as I am with science.

I believe that people can be good and even many times better people than Christians. I thing that if you are an intelligent individual you could be easily a better person than most Christians I have met in all honesty. And I would say that a soul without God is not ugly and if I have said that before i am wrong. I actually believe as a friend of mine once said, “If you were to see any other human soul bare in front of you, you may be willing to worship it because if it’s inherent beauty”

I think that the internet is actually an awesome thing but I don’t think it was created to give a place for people to escape God’s judgment. it is a neutral tool serving the purpose of those using it.

the idea of God as just a Judge i would have to say is regretful and sad. God isn’t actively a judge if anything he is actively dealing in grace and mercy. His judgment is rather part of his nature. As a being where all Truth is there can be no acceptance of things that are not compatible with Truth. That being said I am flawed and am not compatible with him either, hence salvation. How does it work? Mystery button! I know the general idea but the specifics? Nope. Same with the movement of particles when observed or not. Mystery button! Gravity? Mystery button! transubstantiation? Mystery Button!

I totally agree that popular Christianity is a bit of a Joke. I am in seminary right now to become an Anglican Priest of the APCK and I still really struggle with it because of the divisions and stupidity of the body of Christ and its leaders. I hope science and religion can be reconciled because I truly think they are in reality.

Good luck on your journey!

BUT. porn is definately one form of these pollutions. And your article was very well written. it contains alot of vital truth, furthermore, like you i feel strongly against what the various “things” you termed as “pornographies” are doing to the world that is falling succumbed to the appeal of conveniance and short term satisfaction – but the world we are in now was not meant for christianity. this religion, even though it was one of the most successful in western society recently, is now crumbling due to science.science people think they dont need god, so they rely on sciences logic, which only supports mother nature at this point in time. not us. so sciences logic is becoming the mainstream fundement behind morale and social edicate (i dont like mormon’s beliefs coz its a blatent imitation of christianity) so the original concept of god being a giant dude up in the clouds that is watching you do everything like a person looking through eyes is shattered from this along with so many things that have happened in the last century, the internet has spurred this effect on heavily, along with creating the greatest petri dish known to mankind for the human soul to become what it wants free from having to accept anyones judgement. you think a human soul is ugly without god? godless people are only the begginning of the problem. but i think / hope that if humans survive a few more centuries we might find god again when our science (or peak of tangible knowledge) finally gets through the next loophole and lets us open a new set of eyes. eyes that are prepared for a future that includes science and god… which you would hope in time would lead to the same clean morale values as christianity promotes… or that it once promoted. these days christianity is largely unfortunately a joke to alot of the world who pretend to respect it out of political correctness, but in their own privacy stereotype christians the same as every other minority. and while im not christian myself, i think its a shame, because most real christians ive met were very good people who deserved respect for what their beliefs had turned them into, not for the fact they chose to believe something from faith over fact. I am agnostic not aetheist. and any intone of criticism is intended constructively with respect to your beliefs.
