    I am once again asserting that “porn addiction” is a culture bound phenomena where people with otherwise normal sexual interests believe their interest in sex is pathological due to cultural and religious conditioning. As a result they experience extreme distress and maladaptive behaviors around sex while seeking “help” from a repressive religious community. As their sexual feelings are normal human behaviors this leads to an escalating cycle of self hatred and disgust as they seek a cure for a normal condition.

    While the efforts to overcome porn are to be applaud, christian methods to do so are like smashing your kneecap with a hammer to get rid of the leg ache.

      The “And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.” approach to addiction care.
