CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm not sure, but i just slowly got more and more disgusted with it and with myself, and feeling guilty towards God.
It seems i have finally kicked the habit.
But i could still relapse i guess..
Wanting to quit is good though.

Flee from temptation, and keep a correct perspective on what you are looking at, think about who you are looking at, look through the eyes of Christ.
Trust me, its a turn off.
I am not addicted to pornography but have an imagination and burn with passion badly when I am away at sea. There are only 2 situations in which I have beaten this monster and they are both where I have been living in close loving community working for Him and have not been vulnerable to temptation.

Defeating Addiction
The question you must ask yourself when faced with temptation is - Do I want to please self? Or do I want to please God?

Get a hobby. Pornography addiction is often related with procrastrination , so go out more, get friends, do church activities, join chess club, or martial arts

The things in a Christians life are ruled or at least endorsable by Jesus Christ/ the Spirit of God. That is to say He would not object to decent things we are involved in and glory over things Holy. The same can not be said of the world of pornography, that is ruled, the governing spiritual power behind it is Satan. Does this person want to be involved in things that are ruled by Satan or ruled, or at least endorsable by God ? Pornography is an evil,evil, massive industry and it is not what you see on your screen at all. I've worked on the other side of the fence from that industry. Often the girls are very young, away from families, the families just in shambles over the loss. They were suckered in by slick men and by the time they realize what is going on it's too late. They can't always just walk away, sometimes for years. There is often prostitution. And the older women you can be pretty sure are no Christians and sometimes used to recruit the young ones.. It's all about money and when you see bruises on these girls it's for a reason. I'm telling you it's horrible and the one who clicks onto this stuff is supporting it. It's un-Godly and it's wrong. Period.
I have no more to say, I've seen too much and I feel like I've lived through the tears of Jesus over these people. I can assure you He doesn't want them there and He doesn't want Christian people viewing them.. I am 100% sure of that.

So now I got a breath of air, getting ready to cook supper LOL.
Many many Christians see signs of the end times at hand. And even if when you don't see it that way we are told to be ready, be prepared. But we are seeing unprecedented news and weather coverage , just look at the massiveness of the California wild fires. I've listened to some of the comments, not judging but trying to hear something about faith in God , or thanks be to God we are alive. And I won't take away from the impact of what it must be like to return to such a thing but the concern seems to be over the loss of property and belongings and yet officials are finding bones in the ashes there. As a society today, where are peoples spiritual heads ? And this plays right into the pornography phenomenon. It seems if your sights are on God they aren't on naked people having sex on a computer screen or rented movie playing on a tv screen. In a time when we should be looking to God, preparing ourselves for His return the numbers late at night are in the billions who watch pornography ( literally, I'm serious).
There is an amazing phenomenon of evil going on in the world, one where it seems perfectly normal. It's part of the great deception.
