As a girl that struggles with pornography I would totally have to laugh at what the doctor says. In my own experience, the wondering that something was wrong with me, the fear that I would not be satisfied with my future husband and the difficulty that would cause in my future marriage, the possibility that I could cause the same things for my little bros if I slipped up and left stuff on the computer, the shame and guilt the enemy used to keep me down for so long. I don’t think I would consider that a 30 sec spa by any stretch…more like an STD.

Wow, i made it through the whole thread. A couple of things…

Lindy – your boys are lying to you or you home school and they are not allowed out of the house, just sayin

Andy – i may have finally found someone more self absorbed than myself. Nice pics on your FB pages,talk radio show, timothywahtever, blah blah blah

Pete – been reading alot about you and your church, thank you for your heart, your ministry and vision.

God – Thank you for showing me personally what you feel about porn. Thank you for showing me how you view my sin. Thank you for forgiving me. Thank you for redeeming me. Thank you for my wife and children. Thank you for loving me and watching over me. Thank you for the hope you give us in that whatever we are struggling with, we have a way out.

I think a better analogy is that what porn is to men is what a steamy romance novel is to women. Both stimulate the passions (both what the Church Fathers called the passions, meaning the sinful nature, and passionate feelings, meaning sexual feelings.) Both encourage a person to think of someone else as a sexual object rather than turning to one’s spouse in the sacramental union that is sex within marraige. Both set up false ideals and expectations (porn of body types and sexual performance, romance novels of personality types and romantic performance) that can dim the light of even the most brightly shining marriage since who can compare to airbrushed perfection or fictional relationships?

My husband does not indulge in porn out of respect for me and I do not indulge in romance novels out of respect for him. If I read romance novels and start getting “shiny sparkles” in my head about how the male character treats the female character in the novels, I stop appreciating the beauty and love that my husband brings to my life. He is a kind and generous-hearted man but no man alive can live up to fictional romance and I would rather focus on the love he brings to me than start feeling sour grapes because he doesn’t bring some perfect, idealized performance to our relationship. Likewise, I am glad that I don’t have to worry about what image of physical perfection he’s carrying in his head when he gazes upon my own very flawed beauty. I know that when he sees me, he sees *me* rather than just seeing the ways in which I do not resemble some porn queen.

Spas? Not even close. Not in the same ball park at all!

I agree with you that this gentleman was irresponsible with his statements. Addiction in any form is destructive. .-= Jon-paul´s last blog ..Ben – Reaches for Fame! =-.
