After looking around, I'm more confused...

I see that they're people here that like movies and books that I assumed they wouldn't stand because they're Christians....I just assumed that becoming a Christian shuts you out of 95% of the secular world...I'm slowly starting to clean up the junk (I already deleted all my porn links and my small porn collection..) I still have some Playboys and "adult comics" to get rid of and some other misc. stuff...

One question ..should i recycle or just dump them in the trash...Is recycling OK??

After seeing the power of God ...

"many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men:
and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed." (Acts 19:18-20)


God is the answer, for all people, not porn or other idolatry, in fact they are a problem

no, being Christian doesn't cut you off from 95% of the world. At least I hope things aren't quite that bad. It does cut you off from anything that denigrates or abuses others, so I'm glad you're cleaning up your porn collection. But that doesn't mean you can only listen to "Christian" music, etc.
