pfff you all lead very sheltered childhoods.

I first encountered porn pretty damn young. I didn't know what to make of it, so I went back to my lego (I loooooved lego).

I must have been about 13 when I discovered porn. Age limits on websites aren't worth a damn. Teenagers get horny. Its a fact of life about teenagers!

Having said that, I can't understand AdikAko because he uses no punctuation.

Porn can give a pretty skewed perspective on things. Fortunately I had an older brother who was pretty understanding, and explained a lot of things.

Remember, Its only evil if you get caught!

1 I think you mean cheating.
2. The Tower of Babel was built because Noah's children were like, hey we're awesome, why not build an awesome tower, that will let people know, we're awesome? Like yeah!

Uh..


Not gonna say it not gonna say it, eh, what the heck.

Egregious.

Well, he hit me pretty well, if by "sheltered" you mean safe and snuggly.

It's Only evil if you get caught?????????? Are you mad???!?!?!!?!? Do you not know that God is always watching, he is the only one who knows us inside out and sees what others dont see when we are behind closed doors. I pray for the truth to be spilled into your life.

At first I was going to hide from this and cower, I was going to sign off and post as anonymous. But if I did that nobody would be able to help me. I first discovered porn when I was 11, I was addicted for 2 years. Until one day my parents discovered my browsing history which I had forgotten to delete. I got back into it about a year a go, but I have been clean for about 10 months now. I felt so convicted all the time, worried my parents would discover me. I hope I can turn 15 without opening porn for a whole year. I find blaring christian music and laying a bible down on my desk keeps me form viewing it.

Lueamas, if you don't think German girls are hot you have most definitely never been to Germany.

great things are coming along here just fine.....

step 1 - ARAZYS SCRIPTURE RANT...

12Just because something is technically legal doesn't mean that it's spiritually appropriate. If I went around doing whatever I thought I could get by with, I'd be a slave to my whims.

13You know the old saying, "First you eat to live, and then you live to eat"? Well, it may be true that the body is only a temporary thing, but that's no excuse for stuffing your body with food, or indulging it with sex. Since the Master honors you with a body, honor him with your body!

14-15God honored the Master's body by raising it from the grave. He'll treat yours with the same resurrection power. Until that time, remember that your bodies are created with the same dignity as the Master's body. You wouldn't take the Master's body off to a whorehouse, would you? I should hope not.

16-20There's more to sex than mere skin on skin. Sex is as much spiritual mystery as physical fact. As written in Scripture, "The two become one." Since we want to become spiritually one with the Master, we must not pursue the kind of sex that avoids commitment and intimacy, leaving us more lonely than ever—the kind of sex that can never "become one." There is a sense in which sexual sins are different from all others. In sexual sin we violate the sacredness of our own bodies, these bodies that were made for God-given and God-modeled love, for "becoming one" with another. Or didn't you realize that your body is a sacred place, the place of the Holy Spirit? Don't you see that you can't live however you please, squandering what God paid such a high price for? The physical part of you is not some piece of property belonging to the spiritual part of you. God owns the whole works. So let people see God in and through your body.

TRANSLATION FROM THE MESSAGE BIBLE

step two...some truths i think...

We have been impacted by our loss of intimate connection with God.
Lifes pain & emptyness (part of life) can make it easty to use sex in an attempt to meet needs it was never designed to satisfy.

plus more to come

Could I argue that if you don't do want you want, you are a slave to someone else's whims? If so, I will.

Never been to a whorehouse... if you have to pay for it, you're being swindled. :hug:
But seriously, I don't get what you mean by the Master's body. Maybe the Master's body would enjoy a lapdance? I don't get it...

Woah woah woah. I might say I'm Jesus's number 1 fan, but I'm not THAT kind of a fan - either you're mixing metaphors or you're suggesting something I'm REALLY uncomfortable with!

Some Gift! He paid this high price and gives us these bodies, but still owns it?
YOU own the whole works: if you want to devote your life to your interpretation of God, then go for it. Isn't that the whole idea? Your decisions are YOURS. Otherwise its not free will.

Also, I'm not a dualist. Your mind IS your body and vice versa: there is no ghost in your head pulling levers.

As for seeing God through me: why do you think I have long hair and a beard? (well I used to...)

I guess my main problem with what you're saying is that it sounds like slavery: I thought we were all agreed that no one can own another. God doesn't own me: I own me. And I have to live with that responsibility. Yes I make bad decisions, but I make them and I live with them. I also make good decisions, and guess who is taking credit for those? Yep, you guessed it.


.....
I live my life indulging the desires I want to (including the desire to get a good job succeed in my career), and strangely enough I'm not a bad person.
I have a friend who said "If it wasn't for God, then I would be a real b****, knowing he is watching what I do makes me a better person." Guess what? she was a b****. She took a smug satisfaction out of helping others rather than mutual joy. She didn't share in other peoples' emotions because she spent her time judging others and herself (probably because she thought God was doing the same).
My point is this: Mankind isn't all that sinful/evil/bad. Most of the time we're downright pleasant. The things you want are usually good things, and the things you might like that are bad, you don't do, because you're a good person.
I don't need to be told to look after my body because its a gift from God and how beneficent he is to give it to me. I look after it because I like feeling healthy.
Sex might be great, but it isn't magical (at least not in a non-metaphorical sense ;) ). I don't need to believe that sex is a gift from the almighty to realise that a one night stand just isn't the same as with someone you deeply care about. Having said that, I'm sure I'm not the only one in the world who would say that even a one night stand is sometimes better than going home alone.

I'll agree with Az that using sex to fill a void in your life is not a great idea and cheapens the whole thing. For that you need a hobby :). but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater either :hug:

Uh.. I'm pretty sure that the bible says ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
And that our righteousness is as filthy rags.
