I have talked to him and talked to him. I still don't know why he does it, but he has a fetish with porn. Is that wrong? I really don't want him to go to hell for it. I have tried talking to him about it but he doesn't see it as a sin.. Who is right? Is watching porn a sin?

Show him these:
Mat 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Jam 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
1Cr 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Jhn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Here's some good news: Hell doesn't exist! Let him watch all the porn he wants! Hell, watch it with him! Also, I doubt they had pornos 1500 years ago when the bible was written so I doubt it's sinning.

Consider the idea that there is no such thing as "sin."
Consider how you came to believe what you do.
Consider the idea that most adherents of Western religions believe that anyone who does not subscribe to their religion will be sent to "hell" - BUT, that God also loves them.
ANY obsession is not healthy. We all need a balance, without which, we become unhealthy. You cannot use your foundation of religious beliefs when confronting people who don't share such beliefs. You have to speak a common language to achieve communication with people.

Watching porn is as much a sin as telling a lie, worshiping a false god, and hating your brother. He, like the rest of us, is a sinner. So are you by the way. Every one of us is. And he, like the rest of us, is in need of the salvation sweetly and wonderfully offered from God through the shed blood, death, burial, and resurection of the Christ Jesus. Contact me through my e mail (it's available on my profile) to learn more if you wish. I would be glad to walk you through the whole truth about salvation as best as I know how using the Bible so that you get God's side of the situation and not mine. God bless

watching porn is not a sin.... the only thing that might cause that man to feel like he's in hell is someones unending nagging about going to hell.. in which case they are free to walk away from the nag...

No, watching porn is definitely not a sin. So stop worrying about something that is so miniscule, loosen up and start enjoying your life.

Your boyfriend is sinning in his heart, committing fornication in his imagination. Besides that it sounds like he has an addiction to it. If God isn't convicting him of it then it could be that he isn't a born again Christian which means that he will not be seeing the Kingdom of God if he doesn't repent and turn to Jesus for his salvation.
Matthew 5:28 But I say to you that whoever looks on a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Here's a link that might be of some help to him if he is already saved http://www.settingcaptivesfree.com/home/
He needs your prayers whatever the case is.

It's called human nature. Any religion that says human nature is wrong...well, reconsider that we are human, and we were born this way. The guy is going with instinct.
Let him be who he is, he's not hurting anyone. you're way too young to worry about heaven and hell.

It's not a sin...
It's an addiction...
Addictions can be very harmful to a person's health and wellbeing. If his porn watching is interfering with his personal or professional life, or if it is harming your relationship you should get him professional help

An obsession with it is bad, as an obsession with anything can be bad. If he watches porn occasionally it is fine.
