This is very true. You often hate yourself afterwards.SAint Mark said:...Personally I've experienced that whenever I fall into this temptation, besides feeling guilt I also read the bible a lot less and forget to pray more often. So it does precisely what the devil wants it to do. It takes me further away from God.
Yes, this is true. HE is working in us all the time. HE knows we will fall, but HE always picks up back up again. It is our nature to fall as we are from Adam, the first "faller".SAint Mark said:...I can't say that I will be able to resist this temptation 100 % of all times but I struggle against it and I know God will forgive as many times as it takes.
Well, if they aren't from God, then where do they come from?Dracil said:So I guess stories about unicorns, fairies, dragons, elves, dwarves, phoenixes, and other stuff like Merlin and King Arthur and The Wizard of Oz and other fairy tales, and the old Greek, Norse mythologies with the valkyries and Valhalla and so on should all be considered demonic?
Um, let's see. If you're over 18, it's okay to watch it. If you think it's bad for you, WHY ARE YOU WATCHING IT?Yatty said:Is it okay to watch this? Is it okay to get turned on by this?
I'm finding it hard, I get turned on by it, but I am ashamed of myself for doing so.

This leads to a lifestyle of sexuality behaviors that are abnormal at best, deviant at worst. Normal is man-to-woman sexual relationships in the context of monogomous marriage.
Now, for the real post, and back to the subject. On a continuum, on one end you have stick figures humping. On the other end, you have an elaborate computer-generated movie that you wouldn't be able to tell that it was not actual porn, but fake.
Would anyone buy the stick-figure porn? I wouldn't think that it would get great reviews. But, if they started making them more real-life, then you might get a few hits. The slider on the line doesn't have to make jumps, just subtle moves. Eventually, the demand would lead the creators to increasingly realistic re-enactments of sexual acts. That's where the profitability is, and the end of the road is the movie where you can't tell fake from real. Then, there is no purpose in having the ban on "real" porn, it only costs less to make.
If you think this is a hypothetical, think. There are cases in the US Supreme Court trying to legalize computer-generated kiddie porn that looks just like the real thing, but is not.
