Reason 1 & 2 are even objective reasons why not even only Christians should avoid it. It has negative effects on everyone.

"If you are always horny, I mean hungry and on a biological schedule then just don't eat. Don't listen to their concepts. Listen to my concepts"
You getting horny on a schedule is just as natural as your hunger for food. We create concepts to help manage the natural. Just like too much food isn't good for you, too much porn isn't good for you but legal porn could be a good concept to help manage what we all know is natural.
If a religion tells you, "don't eat and if you do then your sinning." They automatically know you will soon fail, keeping you in that guilt state. That guilt state is all the religion needs.
Stand up and the game will fall off of your back.

Outside the Personal Issue's however... it sippurts sex Trafficking and forced abortions.
And in general, its supports the Abortion Industry in its quest to be considered a Right, protected even more then when under Roe vs. Wade Law. Think about it.

@jonstrummer6930 Says:
Demonstrable nonsense.
I've watched plenty of porn in my time but never on a daily basis. I haven't watched, or looked at, any porn for a good few months now. So obviously not addictive and does not create an insatiable need for more.
Fkn laughable horseshit.
Typical xtian twisting of science. Causes brain damage? The bronze age, Middle Eastern cultural myths the gullible and weak minded still believe today demonstrably causes far more brain damage than any porn.
Depraves the soul?
What exactly is this 'soul' thing? Anyone prove souls exist.
These xtians sure have 'an insatiable appetite' and fixation for what goes on in other people's underwear.
Who are the deviants here? Have you actually read your old book of fantastical, ludicrous tall tales? It's full of the most horrifically immoral porn ever written.

@JesusIsTheOnlyWayTruthLife Says:
I was addicted to porn from age 13 to 37. What stopped it is that God graciously delivered me from it when He saved me. I'm now disgusted by any sinful portrayal of sexuality. I wish this was the case for all Christians. But, to those of you who are saved, who *hate* your sin now, keep fighting it and going to the Lord.
Those rationalizing porn use are either new believers who will hopefully soon mature more, or unsaved people. But justifying your sin will have consequences, whether here, or after you die. Be very careful.

@NewcreationinChrist777 Says:
My person experience. Watching explicit videos impacts a person negatively especially those in a relationship. I dont watch it but i have in the past and i mean like once every 3 months and i saw the negative impact. The way it made me think, the images that stuck in my head. The way i started to look at women, it became harder for me to be satisfied and want more in a bad way, etc i dont wnat to be explicit but the negative effects many and extreme. So i cant image someone who watch it regularly or actually do it. I had to repent and remove that all together. Ofc Jesus says whoever looks at a person to lust after then has committed adultery with them already in their heart. Matthew 5:28.
I think the consequences are very serious to these videos and sexual immorality in general, but to someone who is in the Lord the consequences are extremely detrimental.
I’ve committed sins, and I’ve been spiritually attacked by demons until I repented. But the spiritual attacks I received when I committed sexual sin as a Christian were more extreme than others not to say one is OK in another is not but the Bible is clear one example is 1 Corinthians 6:18-20.
Sex is a beautiful thing that God gave us, in marriage(which by definition, is between ONE man and ONE woman). Anything outside of that is dangerous in many ways including ways we can and cant understand

My only contention here is the point about willpower comming from the brain. Mainly because none of the evidence we have bares that out. There has been alot of tests done on stimulating various parts of the human brain. And while we can do things like force motor function, or sensations like hunger, no test has ever been able to stimulate a will response.
@BRB_Doggos Says:
I have been addicted to porn since I was abused at 10 years old. It is one of the most contributing things to the downfall of society. Porn should be illegal. It destroys your brain rots it from the inside out rewiring it to seek endorphins and pleasure from something so fake and artificial

@gorillaz_jbi Says:
Evidence of the downfall of our society….
PornHub released their 2022 data earlier this year and it is bleak. It’s kind of funny, but in a very twisted, sad and depressing way. First let’s get a broad overview. Once again America has been awarded with a great honor of watching more porn than any other country in the entire world. We basically doubled the “watch time” of the runner-up.
The New York Post said, “Despite domestic problems, including soaring inflation and political polarization, America was still the country with the highest daily traffic to PornHub, with stressed-out citizens seemingly turning to adult entertainment to forget about their daily dilemmas. The United Kingdom came second, followed by France, Japan, Mexico and Italy.
Yes, it’s been a stressful time for all of us. But this is pretty embarrassing. We are a laughing stock on the world stage. 86% of Americans consumed porn on their phones in 2022. That’s not even taking into account any other devices. They also provided data on the “searches” on PornHub as well and how those vary. The number 2 category searched was for “lesbian porn” which of course is not that shocking. That has been around for a while. But the number 4 most searched genre of adult entertainment in 2022 was “transgender”.
I feel like this basically confirms that so many people WEIRDLY see transgenderism as a KINK and a SEXUAL FETISH. I say weirdly, but we see the way that so many of these people are presenting themselves to the outside world. But when when someone like me (a conservative) says that, that is apparently hatred and bigotry? Because these people are just trying to “love and accept” themselves and it should be absolutely “age-appropriate” when the 4th most searched genre of porn is transgender porn. But all jokes aside though the porn issue in America needs to be addressed. Americans are addicted to porn. Literally.
Around 35% of all internet downloads are pornographic. As the internet grows exponentially, the amount of porn on the internet increases as well. However, the amount of pornography available may not be as much of a problem as its ease of access. This ease of access means that intentional or inadvertent exposure to porn is increasing among minors. Exposure to porn as a child or teenager can lead to unhealthy ideas about sexual relationships.
The internet is not the only source of pornography on the market. A study conducted in 2006 found that about 84% of people between the ages of 18 and 49 had watched pornographic films, either rented or on television. Another 82% had viewed pornographic magazines.
- 40 million U.S. adults regularly visit internet pornography websites
- 10% of U.S. adults admit to having an addiction to internet pornography
- 17% of all women struggle with porn addiction
- 20% of men and 13% of women admit to accessing porn while at work
- 70% of women admit to keeping their cyber activities secret.
- 1 of 3 visitors of all adult websites is a woman
- Women favor chat rooms twice as much as men
This is not people who are just watching hours and hours but don’t want to say anything. They are actually admitting that they are addicted.
Today, porn addiction, or problematic pornography use, affects approximately 3% to 6% of the adult population. Up to 65% of young adult men and 18% of young adult women report watching pornography at least once a week, though this amount can be much higher.
The increasing exposure of children to internet porn also likely contributes to the rise in porn addiction. Age restrictions on porn sites often consist of no more than a button to click claiming to be 18 or older. The median age of first exposure to pornography is now only 14 years old. As many as 93.2% of boys and 62.1% of girls first see porn before they turn 18. Early exposure to porn is correlated with increased porn use and addiction later in life.
Other surveys back these numbers up. A study from 2012 found that men’s porn use can lower the self esteem of their wives and girlfriends. Infrequent porn use does not negatively affect marriages or other romantic relationships. However, the more frequently men view porn, the more insecure and unhappy their female partners tend to become. About 56% of divorce proceedings cite an “obsessive interest” in pornographic websites. This should tell us right here how big of an issue this is.
Almost 50% of all marriages in the United States will end in divorce or separation. Researchers estimate that 41% of all first marriages end in divorce. It is no surprise, then, that marital infidelity is a leading cause of divorce. Just how common is marital infidelity? According to a study from the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, as many as 25% of married men and 15% of married women have had extramarital affairs.
Pornography usage is directly linked to poor mental health and it can cause depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and brain fog. Physically it causes a literal disruption to your sexual hormones. No wonder our society is so messed up.
On top of all this, the almost 17 billion dollar porn industry is directly linked to the sex trafficking industry. PornHub itself is already in multiple lawsuits about that, about uploading child pornography or rape scenes. The NY Post stated the top PornHub execs resigned after accusations of underage, forced sex videos (child rape). The NY Post also stated that PornHub, MindGeek (owns PornHub), hosted rape videos of teen sex trafficking victims. They are still in that lawsuit. One of many.
There is no way to make this lighter than it is. Even people that are on the far Left, including radical feminists, agree that PornHub is incredibly dangerous, especially to women. Even people who are pro-abortion can find common ground with someone who is anti-abortion on this topic. I think we can all agree that porn is ruining this country. Especially for women because of the way some men view women or because of the way some women are treated sexually and non-sexually. Because of the sex trafficking. This should not be a political issue. Porn is called the new drug for a reason. It is consuming our country. This shouldn’t be a taboo subject anymore and I’m not prude for talking about it. This is a root problem in our society right now.

@mattr.1887 Says:
I think there definitely needs to be a healthy balance. Especially in today's world - kids have access to way too much at an early age.
That said...a healthy male teenager is going to have fantasies and thoughts. Even without porn. I would think God can handle that. If no one had a libido, then there would probably be no families.
