Christians surf for porn

This is very depressing, though not horribly surprising. The internet is an anonymous way to access pornography, providing a powerful temptation to "try it out 'cuz no one will ever know."

But, recent research is revealing that no one is immunized against the vice-grip clutches of sexual addictive behaviors. The people who struggle with the repeated pursuit of sexual gratification include church members, deacons, staff, and yes, even clergy. And, to the surprise of many, a large number of women in the church have become victim to this widespread problem. Recently, the world's most visited Christian website, ChristiaNet.com, conducted a survey asking site visitors eleven questions about their personal sexual conduct..."The poll results indicate that 50% of all Christian men and 20% of all Christian women are addicted to pornography," said Clay Jones, founder and President of Second Glance Ministries whose ministry objectives include providing people with information which will enable them to fully understand the impact of today's societal issues.

It shows again the importance of accountability in web surfing.

Normally, I would avoid this kind of news in an effort to provide a family-friendly blog. But this is too important to let it go without comment.
