Geovanni412: Porn ruins your motivation cycle
The dopamine levels rise very quickly while watching porn and drop below base level when you're done
Sex can't replicate the highs of porn..
Listen to Andrew Huberman, the neurologist..he talks more on this.
Israel understands how porn ruins motivation and that is why they used it as a weapon by broadcasting it on TV station of the enemy Palestines. See :https://www.smh.com.au/world/middle-east/porn-run-on-seized-tv-channels-say-residents-20020401-gdf5uw.html Hubermann talked on masturbation, not porn. You can watch porn without masturbating, and you can masturbate without watching porn. They are not congruous |

PythonPros: Your points are duly noted and i have no interest critiquing them since it's clear that you are a quite the professed authority in the subject matter.
I am particularly interested though in point number 7. You seemed so passionate and fixated in your belief that "Pedophilias thrive more without porn".
Can you share any links to articles or documentaries supporting this statement or are we to conclude you arrived at this based on your own vast wealth of experience? Pedophilia is a criminal paraphilia, meaning its an punishable sexual perversion. Its something one gets addicted to gradually. Many people(even here on Nairaland) have been assaulted as kids by uncles, aunts, parents etc. And this have been around way before porn became common. The causes are maultifactorial and nebulous. Most commonly atteibuted factor is hormonal(though it is inconclusive) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4478390/https://psychcentral.com/disorders/causes-of-pedophilia |

correctguy101: Isaiah 45:7 agrees with the Quranic verse you post.
But truly I say to thee, let no man say this is good or that is bad, for there's really nothing good or anything bad. That is why the ancestors say one man's food can be another's poison.
It's like a man that snatches a bird from the claws of an hungry cat. Is that good or bad? It's good to save the bird yet very evil to deprive another from their daily bread....  So is murder good or bad, according to your opinion? |

Yes or no 2. You're speaking from both sides of your mouth. You say your aim of seeking any god is to be omnipotent, omnipresent and omnibenevolent. In the same breath, you said its for direction.

PythonPros: This. He/She literally said nothing. Was expecting him to discuss the following 1. A user's IP address can be noted and used for blackmail. 2. Similarly, a user's camera can be hacked to capture the images of users for blackmail 3. Chronic porn users tend to derive less satisfaction from their real life partners 4. Chronic porn users tend to hit a plateau quicker hence seek riskier and more morbid sex acts to fuel their insatiable desires. 5. Lack of trust in your partners especially when caught engaging in despicable weird porn. 6. Promotes early sexual activities in children Etc 7. Promotes pedophilia, incest, homosexuality, trans-porn, bestiality... Take ur pick
Forcing religion down people's throat achieves nothing since most people do not feel guilty as watching porn IS NOT A CRIME.
Heck, most movies now have some degree of porn in them.
Let's be reasonable please in our submissions. 1. You're talking online porn. What if he's watching a porn channel? 2. Ditto 1 3. Happens to non porn watchers too, especially people that cheat 4. Ditto 3 5. Not all porn are despicable. And non-porn watchers still distrust their spouse when they cheat. In fact distrusts happen in cheating more than porn watchers(if it happens at all) 6. I never watched porn til I was in secondary school, and I have friends like that. They still got their girls early. In fact, I didn’t even start having sex til uni. So this point is unacceptable 7. Absolute rubbish. Pedophilias thrive more without porn. And people didn't become pedophiles, trannies etc by watching porn. Did you even think before spewing this? |

Interesting15: There are many avid patronizers of pornography all around the world. Many young people jumped into this immoral venture via curiosity and the inability to have full control over themselves. There are also many adults who have become a slave to both the bitter pleasures attached to pornography, as well as its numerous unpleasant side effects.
It's so bad. There are so many people in our society currently under the intense yoke of pornography. Perhaps, you are also one of them. But today, if you are ready to cooperate with the Spirit of God, there will be a revival indeed.
7 Things Many People Don't Know About Pornography
1. There is really nothing good in pornography. It is a perversion that defiles nature, as well as the divine order. The Will of God the Supreme Creator, is that sex should be a honourable and sacred activity, and sexual acts should be a private affair between a married man and his female wife in the safe circle of their marriage institution. Everything about porn is a perversion.
2. Whenever you see a porn apologist (those saying there's nothing wrong with porn), please, don't only be wary of them, but also flee from them. Let me expose them here. The average porn apologist is aware that everything is wrong with pornography, but they can't help but promote this immoral thing just for personal reasons. Some of them are directly working for the devil (terrible witches and wizards practicing diabolical occultism), and must do the bidden of their master the devil (which includes, luring and seducing others into sinful activities, so he can have a chance to afflict them). Don't be deceived by their outward appearances.
3. There are certain other porn apologists that are doing what they do because they don't want to be the only ones that will go on suffering from the unpleasant repercussions that follow pornography. Privately and secretly, they personally regret starting the journey of pornographic pleasures, but as they are stuck, they want others to be like them, hence, they portray porn in a positive light. I'm telling you the truth! Don't be deceived by their outward appearances.
4. The terrible effects of pornography are very many. I'm sure you already know some of them. But even more, than you know, there are deeper bitter repercussions attached to pornography.
5. It is possible to totally overcome pornography addiction. The Will of God is that you should have dominion over everything, and you shouldn't be under the yoke of immorality (and satan with hell)
6. You can reclaim your dominion and authority by accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. This is the first important step you must take. Anywhere you are, open your heart and just say, "Jesus, please come into my life". If you are sincere, God will definitely come to you (because He loves you)
The Holy Spirit will be sent to help you. You now have the power and authority to rebuke lust (even out of your heart and thoughts) and temptations too. One of the things that will happen to you when you give your life to Christ is that you will experience a shift of mindset, and your thought patterns will be divinely enhanced and rightly empowered. You will no longer find solace in porn (or things that will get you dirty and hurt you). You will know the proper way to live life and will form new habits that glorify God, and that will ensure you enjoy the dominion you have been destined to have (don't forget that being under sin makes people forfeit their right to rule their world)
7. On your part, it is helpful to be accountable to a mature believer around you. Set the right boundaries and be busy with productive activities (including fulfilling your purpose, utilizing your talents, engaging in constant spiritual activities like praying and studying God's Word, etc). Also, take appropriate sacrifices (such as putting away your smartphone for some time). You are on your way to victory.
God bless you.
https://www.sundayakanni.com/2023/03/7-things-many-people-dont-know-about.html Do you watch porn? I guess not. How does watching porn go against natural law like you said? And how is your life better off as a non-porn watcher? |

[quote author=tctrills post=121869080][/quote]1. You said evil was not created. So I asked you if you think Yahweh didn't create everything in the world 2. This is the Adam and the temptation scenario. How was Adam, a mortal, supposed to defeat an omniscient and omnipresent being like the devil? Please don't deviate 3. You are going out of context. We are talking about Adam failing Yahweh's test. And its not just a regular test, its a world defining test(like you christians want us to believe) and it changed the world. So there's no return after that. |

tctrills: My answer is that the problem is with your understanding. You see other people as dumb because they believe in God and you are the one using your brain right? It's impossible to explain to someone like you, that's the only problem here. Can you bring a knife to a gun fight? No! This world got advanced via science. People can travel around the world in one day, what was unheard of years ago. You can see and talk to someone in the other side of the world, a feat unheard of years ago. It did not happen by religion. Not by singing hymns every Sunday. Not by having faith. Just science. And science is based on facts and logic. Not faith. So if science is beneficial, why should I engage in religion? What are the benefits of religion as against science? |
