Pornography has subtly become the most destructive weapon on earth against humanity.
It’s a masked monster, a trojan horse, and a destroyer of everything that is pure. It’s claiming victims, and wiping out the moral compass of millions of people worldwide and it’s not just men that are being effected. Women are increasingly becoming addicted to pornography and the effects are tragic. It alone has been the root cause of some of the basest crimes ever committed against the young and the innocent. It alone can destroy the expectations of men, the beauty of a woman, and the romance that could exist between the both of them.
“Evil that used to be localized and covered like a boil is now legalized and paraded like a banner…the movies and magazines and television (and I might add the Internet) that shape our attitudes are filled with stories or images that portray the children of God as predatory beasts or, at best, as trivial creations pursuing little more than personal pleasure. And too many of us accept this as entertainment.”1
“Accidental” children out of wedlock is the norm. Abortions are the norm. People have been desensitized and animalized.
Pornography, which might be the most dangerous addiction this earth has ever seen is now accessible to children and adults of all ages. Smart phones provide one click access to the dirtiest things the human mind can conjure up. In 1986 the FBI interviewed 36 major serial killers. Based on those interviews, the Attorney General’s Commission declared that 81% of those killers that were studied said “their biggest sexual interest was in reading pornography.”2 Ted Bundy, one of the most recognized serial killers in human history said in his final interview before being executed that his early exposure to pornography is what sent him in the direction of acting out “the fantasies he had seen depicted for so long.” Another serial killer out of Utah by the name of Arthur Bishop who was executed for sodomizing and murdering 5 boys ages 4 to 13 said these words regarding pornography:
“Pornography wasn’t the only negative influence in my life, but its effect on me was devastating. I lost all sense of decency and respect for humanity and life, and I would do anything or take any risk to fulfill my deviant desires.”3
Both of these men described their addictions as starting with “soft” or common pornography. Then they sought for harder stuff until their addiction became so uncontrollable that they had to act out the things they were seeing. It lulled them in, bound them softly, then locked them in. Once this monster had them, he turned them into puppets of devastation.
These are extreme cases. I understand that. But pornography leads to the destruction of one of humanities greatest gifts. That’s a fact. Devastation is taking place all over the world on a micro and macro scale because of a disregard for marriage, fidelity, responsibility, and loyalty. The world is suffering from a shortage of true love.
[Tweet “The world is suffering from a shortage of true love.”]
There are an estimated 125,000 abortions performed each day or 40-50 million abortions performed each year.
Kids watch this stuff on their devices at any given time. Then they ignorantly create their own porn. Boys turn girls into sex objects by 7th or 8th grade. Those girls then find themselves at the abortion clinic…scarred for life while the boy has moved on to “someone with less baggage.” It’s so sad and sickening what people are going through because of this plague.
Using technology, young kids ask for naked pictures and attempt to recreate the scenarios they see on their devices. They don’t need to be 18 anymore…or sneak into an adult video store. All they have to do is type a few words into Google…and it’s there. The most degrading and debilitating drug known to mankind. It is consumed almost immediately. There is no smoke, no needle, no smell, and no money required. It’s just there.
Promiscuous sex ranks higher than anything else aside from child malnutrition in wasting potential good years of life and causing premature death. There is nothing that quite symbolizes Satan’s persona as does pornography. “It is like a raging storm, destroying individuals and families, utterly ruining what was once wholesome and beautiful.”4
Pornography is a monster, and it is treading down the nations. It will try and attack you even if you’re not looking for it. For the sake of your family, yourself, and the world…you’ve got to fight against it, and help others do the same.
Well said. Plain speech is needed on this matter and I think you spoke admirably.
Thanks John!
It’s so horrific, tragic, and terrifying to see it destroy so many. We are at constant war trying to protect our children from this disgusting plague that is excepted by so many. Thank you for your joining the fight!!
I think the quotes from Serial Killers is arguable instead of causality to correlation. It doesn’t change the value of self-reflection but I think taking quotes from obviously unstable men is an emotional appeal when there is better material to support your point and better ways of driving it home than the serial killer aspect.
It has become a virus, self-replicating as men & women seek it out in their own ways of titilation and electronic excitement. There is massive damage done in marriages, and the societal impact you address.
At its most evil it takes a wonderful part of life designed to build, strengthen and empower love & Marriage, and destroys it.
