adepeter2027: bro, you're comparing two unequal things I am talking from experience bro. I was an addict. I had the same problems. Other addicts I have interviewed on nairaland and reddit have/had similar problems. To confirm go to a subreddit on reddit called nofap and see for thyself. There are no full scientific reports on it yet considering the sensitivity of the subject. Previously, I never believed like you. |

As an atheist, I would say watching it is not a sin. It's when it becomes addictive that is harmful. Long term addiction to porn can cause cognitive impairments. Then you will be having memory losses, forgetfulness, difficulty reading and understanding, inability to concentrate, anxiety and panic attacks etc. Even when you quit, you might still suffer these symptoms as withdrawal which might last many months to two years.
Drug addicts, weed addicts, alcohol addicts report the same thing too. |

adepeter2027:
 Taar
I disagree with you... Porn doesn't and isn't responsible for memory loss, difficulty in reading and other things you listed above.
Like paracelsus said "EVERYTHING IS POISON BUT THE DOSAGE IS WHAT MATTERS" watching in itself doesn't do any harm. Once in a month ain't bad but when it becomes addictive is when the problem starts. Addiction is the key word here. The cognitive malfunction porn addicts suffer is similar to that of drug, weed and alcohol addicts. |

TheManofTomorrow: Believe me, I have also been in ur shoes before. Believing porn is not lethal just because I never masturbated or had sex. watching pornography affects us in ways we cant imagine from high libido to memory loss. I am not a thoroughly religious person and so I don't know much about the religious detriment of porn. The cons of watching porn is that it is addicting and can ruin an intelligent mind once being addicted to it. I would have love delve in the different detriment of porns but I won't be able to. I has been months I abstained from watching porn and I daresay I am a whole lot comfortable and whole. You can do it do
And remember I am speaking from deep experience. can I speak to you? |

Hati13: Yes, I believe that we (I, Nature and they - if they participated) are responsible for our evil/good actions.
If a person intentionally commit a bad thing, then he deserve punishment. But ppl didn't created life on Earth, so we can't punish them for the natural caused hell is going on here.
Hell on Earth is caused by both Nature and Humans.  if you do your research, you will realise that we and our world are what we make of it. All religions are bunk and their gods don't exist. Don't listen to these gullible nairalanders telling you trash. A world of suffering like this does not point to a loving God. |

Hati13: I've stopped believing in God/gods few years ago, but if there is/are God/gods like most ppl confidently believe, then why are some of us facing lifetime suffering?
Those God/gods could be advanced Aliens or God of Christianity/Islam or any other forms, but if they created us and most of us worship them, then at least they should help us directly. If not, then why did they created us? Is it to see us suffer and die and see the same thing again and again until everything is destroyed/ended? Hati13, take heart in whatsoever you are going through. I would like you to ignore those talking trash. All religious gods don't exist. Yahweh, Allah, Budda etc. They don't exist. Hope you overcome anything you are facing.  |

ScienceWatch: How a world famous geneticist went from staunch atheist to Christian convert 17th March 2016
Read the amazing testimony of Francis S. Collins, M.D, Ph.D http://www.examiner.com/article/francis-collins-geneticist-turns-from-staunch-atheist-to-christian-apologist
In the 1990s, Francis Collins, the head of the Human Genome Project, stood by Bill Clinton’s side as the President announced: 'Today we are learning the language in which God created life.' One of the most respected scientists in the field of genetic research, Collins was a self-described 'obnoxious atheist' in his academic days. During this stage in his life, it seemed clear to Collins that science had all of the answers. Any questions about life and the universe could ultimately be reduced to physics and chemistry.
After college, Collins attended medical school, where he was confronted by a broad spectrum of suffering and disease. To his surprise, one of his patients happily described how her religious beliefs supported her through her suffering, and then challenged him on his own beliefs. Forced to examine the evidence concerning the truth or falsity of religion, Collins was eventually led to read C. S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity, where, he says, '...within the first three pages, I realised that my arguments against faith were those of a schoolboy.' He realised that no law of science could adequately explain the existence of morality
When Collins read Lewis’ critique of moral law, he realised that no law of science could adequately explain the existence of morality, but a Creator God fit the explanation perfectly. While the logic of it was striking, Collins’ true conversion experience came from an experience of natural beauty. He describes it this way:

Health › Re: 7 Major Ways Porn Addiction Affects Your Brain by Martinez19(m): 6:24pm On Sep 23, 2017 |
uzoclinton: The easy access and ubiquitous nature of porn these days prompted me to do a research on the effects porn addiction has on our brain. And i tell you, it isn’t funny. Here are the 7 major ways porn addiction affects your brain.
1. Pornography addiction leads to same brain activity as alcoholism or drug abuse MRI scans of test subjects who admitted to compulsive pornography use has shown that the reward centres of the brain reacted to seeing explicit material in the same way as an alcoholic’s might on seeing a drinks advert.
2. It alters the dopamine reward system Dopamine plays a major role in the brain system that is responsible for reward-driven learning. And just like Cocaine, weed etc porn has also been shown to directly trigger dopamine secretion which ultimately alters the reward centre. Once the reward centre is altered, a person will compulsively seek out the activity that triggered the dopamine discharge. This, is how an addict is made.
3. It shrinks the brain Porn may also literally shrink the brain, a study published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry found out that Men who regularly consumed porn had smaller brain volume and fewer connections in the striatum, a brain region tied to reward processing, compared with those who didn’t view porn.
4. It Affects your memory Viewing porn almost always leads to sexual tension and a need for an outlet and most people often release this tension by masturbating -its the easiest way- Thats why most porn addicts are also chronic masturbators.
The unfortunate reality is that each time a man ejaculates, he loses vital neurochemicals that are involved with concentration and memory . With lowered levels of these neurochemicals -caused by frequent ejaculation, individuals experience memory lapses.
5. It affects your mental health Continuos exposure to porn also affect your brain’s dopamine levels, which is correlated with social anxiety, depression, low motivation concentration problems, low self esteem etc.
6. It alters the mirror neurons in the brain pornography triggers mirror neurons in the male brain, this mirror neuron system triggers the arousal, which leads to sexual tension and a need for an outlet. The downside is that when he acts out (often by masturbating), this leads to hormonal and neurological consequences, which are designed to bind him to the object he is focusing on. Thats why most porn addicts are also chronic masturbators.
7. It Numbs the Brain Overstimulation of the reward circuitry—such as occurs with repeated dopamine spikes related to viewing pornography—creates desensitization. When dopamine receptors drop after too much stimulation, the brain doesn’t respond as much, ergo we feel less reward from pleasure. That drives us to search even harder for feelings of satisfaction which ultimately leads to more frequent porn viewing habit thus further numbing the brain.

@vaxx, you claimed religious progress aids scientific advancement. STUPUDTHEISTS said it's not true and that even though a scientist maybe religious, his scientific discoveries are in no way dependent and facilitated by religious beliefs. He holds that irrespective of the religious stance of the scientist, religious beliefs are not involved in scientific discoveries neither do they facilitate/aid them. |

PEPPERified: The trick that the devil used to enter Eve's mind and made her doubt God is the same truth the devil is still using to decieve other believers and make them turn away from God. The devil almost succeeded in getting me turn away from God until I got this revelation.
Whenever thoughts such as: 1. "Did God really say?" 2. "Is God really true?" 3. "Does God really exist?" 4. "Would God really care?" 5. "Can Go really help?"... Are planted in your mind, then the devil has succeeded in planting his device in your heart.
When the devil succeeded in planting this kind of thought in Eve's mind and made her doubt God, the fall of man began. I got to a point, I started doubting and questioning but the evidences that all religious gods and teachings are man made and fake were staring at me in the face. I can't denied them without being dishonest. Miracles don't occur, prayer and faith don't work, God can't be moral, I mean the evidences are glaring. Go to hospitals and see the sick both believers and unbelievers all hopeless, look at the luxurious lifestyles of men of God and the universities they built while their members beg for bread. See the suffering in the, it doesn't point to a loving and all protective creator. |
