Is watching porn a sin?

Question

And why younger people like me (16 years old) are forbidden in porn sites?

Answer 1

I assume you are asking a serious question and I do not understand why you have no answers yet. I will try OK

My friend at your age I was not suppose to watch it either, but I did cheat a little. You see I had friends who did get ahold of some so without my parents knowing I did see some. I am not saying I did right, but I am just telling you my past experiences many years ago OK

Who is telling you not to watch it? Are they in control? You know children are suppose to honor their parents and to obey or pay the consequences for not obeying.

Now as far as it being as sin, that is between you and your God. In my view it is disobedience if your parents told you not to do it however God did not tell anyone not to do it. So you may sin against your parents but not against God unless you do accept the fact you should not do it. For anything not done by faith that it is ok to do is sin for you. [I get this all from the Bible for I do use it as my guide] If you do not use it or do not know it, then why are you asking about sin. Is it because you think that maybe it is not good to do?

You ask yourself, is it that important to you? What will you do with it once you watch it and know what it is all about? Is it just for education or will you then try to immitate it?

My friend there is no commandment not to watch it but there is good advice. First that advice is that the ways of the world [what all who just follow no special guidelines] is not good with My God. Second My God say do not walk where its not good for you, do not stand by to learn what all other love to do, and do not set down with others who will teach you to do things that are not designed for your betterment. You have to stop and stand by to see the prono movies and normally you will set down to watch to learn what and how to do what is put on display.

Really I can not tell you to watch it and I will not tell you not to watch it. Why don't you have a serious talk with your father alone about it. Why not ask him or at least the one who tells you not to watch it. Maybe they do have a good reason fo it.

You know when I was young My Father always had beer in the refrigerator and told me any time I want one to get it. He drank maybe 1 beer every 2 or 3 months but there was always 5 or 6 in the refrigerator. I never got one and when I got older it was no big deal to drink beer for me. All my friends did want me to buy them beer when I joined the US Air Force because a 17 I could buy beer but I did not want to for me. They could not buy because they had to be 21 in Indiana. So I sometimes bought it for them but I did not drink it because it was no big deal with me [oh maybe I would drink one with them but that is all]. I always had it in the house.

Maybe you can explain this to the one who says you can not watch and maybe they will let you see one just for the education. Its worth a try OK.

Please see this just as my view and if they tell you NO, accept it OK. I do not have the responsibility of being in charge of you OK

Now do think of this and do have a good day.

I am glad I did find your question to answer it

Answer 2

okay, how about a short answer now. Watching porn is not a sin. It's like watching someone get killed in a movie. You're not actually doing it, so it's not sinful. But it may make you think of doing it, and that may lead to commiting a sin. Porn is all about adultary, at least the story lines usually are. The twist is, the actors/actresses are not commiting a sin by making porn, they're just doing a job, though that doesn't hold true for mob people.
