To be fair, religion was mentioned in the opening post.

This topic popped up on my twitter feed this morning and it reminded me of my trip to the movies a couple of weeks ago to see "KONG", by they way if you haven't had a 4-D movie experience I suggest you try it out. Anyways someone had their baby there and while I try to preach empathy to for others plights I find these situations to be a conundrum. While I would never advocate something as barbaric as a baby muzzle or sound canceling device, which I'm sure is in the development, I would say that bringing your kids to the movie theater is a definite no-no. I remember watchjng the dark knight as a kid and someone screaming "shut that baby up", I was thinking then, how rude, but not for the screamer more so the parents. In my case a couple a weeks ago I spent over $30 to see a movie and got the bonus features of listening to a baby crying and parents ssshing her/him. I can't think of any other place where this annoys me, well I can, when I'm outside at a restaurant patio and smoke a cigar, I love it that people with parents roll their eyes at me as if to say you should be better. I'm good with it in church as people may not have a babysitter and may not feel comfortable leaving their infant in a nursery. Just saying

Yes - it is depiction with the intent and actual use of being viewed with lust. You can split hairs all you want, but it doesn't take change what's going on.

That would be very difficult to do as long as people of faith are allowed on CTT. There are folk who take to heart the words of Paul when he wrote, "God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; neither is worshiped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; and hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. for as much then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead." To such folk, nothing is outside of religion and religion is in everything. That's just the way it is... learn to live with it.
"A boy cannot become a girl and a man cannot become a woman, not even if he shuts his eyes and wishes really hard."

I guess it depends on how you define porn.

not sure I know what the "NLT" is but I simply love the KJV.....I learned to read from it and have never, for long, used anything but it in my devotionals......the KJV and Shakespeare were super and singularly important to me and my siblings childhood education......mac
