I can't believe that 85% of the People in my country (U.S.A) are Christians and agree with this immoral act/lifestyle that the nation/world is accepting as a norm. I can't believe that all 12 yahoo avatars disagreed! I know that 85%(static done by CNN) of the people in this Country are Christians at least ten of yall should had agreed with his claim though it belittles the country but this young man was after that of the will of God and that counts more than any thing else. I John 2:15-17 says:
15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
: The statement that this young man Jacob made was a good one and it shows me that we are truly living in the end times as IITimothy3:1-8 tells us how it will be in the last days
Dangers of the Last Days
1 You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. 2 For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. 3 They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. 4 They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. 5 They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!
6 They are the kind who work their way into people’s homes and win the confidence of[a] vulnerable women who are burdened with the guilt of sin and controlled by various desires. 7 (Such women are forever following new teachings, but they are never able to understand the truth.) 8 These teachers oppose the truth just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses. They have depraved minds and a counterfeit faith. 9 But they won’t get away with this for long. Someday everyone will recognize what fools they are, just as with Jannes and Jambres.
: . He mention that it was the word of God through his Son Jesus Christ that set him free from Pornography. Every Christian should have a Christ like character as Christ, because He was the Perfect Example that God wants us to follow though were not perfect we must at least strive to belike him because If we practice keeping his commandments it shows that we Love him.
Pornography causes People to lust and commit adultery in the heart I’ve heard of it ending marriages think of the life style that porn stars live and how its ungodly and would you want your family relatives doing that all their live as a job because their too lazy to get a real Job?
Matthew 5:27-30 , 27 “You have heard the commandment that says, ‘You must not commit adultery.’[k] 28 But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 So if your eye—even your good eye[l]—causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30 And if your hand—even your stronger hand[m]—causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
I advise all Christians to try to start reading the bible more at all times especially this passage in the Bible
MATTHEW 7
The Golden Rule 12 “Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets.
The Narrow Gate
13 “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell[f] is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. 14 But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.
The Tree and Its Fruit
15 “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. 16 You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. 18 A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit. 19 So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. 20 Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions.
True Disciples
21 “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. 22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ 23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
Building on a Solid Foundation
24 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. 26 But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. 27 When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”
28 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, 29 for he taught with real authority—quite unlike their teachers of religious law.
I Totally Agree with you Jacob every man needs to get their own wife and should not have to Lust after a naked women having sex on T..V/Computer/cell also vise versa to women as well.

Excuse me, but you made choices. The "pornography made me do it" and "the devil made me do it" are EVADING THE RESPONSIBILITY for your own poor choices.
Next I suppose you'll say something idiotic like, "Well of COURSE the women in Saudi Arabia must all wear burkas because otherwise they will cause men to rape them."
DON'T blame something outside of yourself for your own failure to keep your schlong in your shorts.
For what it is worth, the same God you claim delivered you made you what you were at birth, INCLUDING the latent sexual urges that led you to where you are now. You cannot have the one without the other.
In the Bible the phrase SEXUAL IMMORALITY does not appear. That is a fabrication if you say it does. The Bible would call that lasciviousness. Go read it again because all you seemed to learn came from a modern-day shepherd more likely to FLEECE his flock than lead it. The ideas you have in that head of yours came from some preacher with an agenda.
I have no more desire than you do to degrade a woman - but go re-read the Song of Solomon (vis-a-vis Sheba) before you condemn sexually explicit and strongly suggestive language. Go read about Lot's suggestion to the crowd who wanted him to turn out his houseguest. Find out what HE offered.
Put the blame for your situation squarely where it lies. Not with porno flicks and such - but in the weakness within yourself. And God didn't save you. You saved yourself. God only shows the way. It is up to you to follow the path.
Why am I being so harsh? Because you are speaking like you are still on someone else's path and don't realize you have the strength to follow your own path, to ask your own questions, to find your own answers.
Don't listen to a preacher with an agenda. Read the Bible for YOURSELF. Let the words be your lesson without the crutch of a preacher to "tell you what it really means." God will speak to your heart if you listen. But if you REALLY want to be a man, stop being a sheep bleating at things outside yourself. Be the man who can control himself to be the good person you want to be. It IS within you.

I do agree with your sentiment but considering porno materials as prostitution isn't right. While prostitution comprised an individual in full view & tangible while porno materials are intangible.
So now you are a born again christian, it took you so many years to realized the beauty of a women shouldn't be violated by your early exploits. It took a belief from all mighty God to do this. This is one of the miracle of life. Praise the Lord. But your terms on this isn't right & even Congressman or just simply a lawyer couldn't agree on this issue.

Yeah, way to blame porn for your irresponsibility. Porn isn't the reason you had a child at such a young age. This is just another example of people having this victim mantality, you don't have anyone to blame but yourself.

First of all, you live in the United States of America. Land of the free... Not everyone thinks the way you do. In fact, luckily most don't. Please move to Russia. I think you will be happier there. They will control what you and your children see & do. I will leave it at that . Me thinks you are not the sharpest tool in the shed...Good luck, See ya

You can't make personal morality a legal matter. That would be pressing your own beliefs onto those who believe that pornography is perfectly harmless, and trying to regulate people's private affairs.

It really isn't the fault of the government that you couldn't control your hormones. Some people get addicted to food....should they make eating illegal too?
