In a sense porn producers are like drug pushers and the actors are the Pawns/tools. OK I'm not saying that they are as moraly corrupt as drug dealers as what they are doing is legal, but essentially they want people to become addicted for them to make a living.
No kidding. Unfortunately Western culture doesn't recognise this fundamental truth. (Hey I've hit two digits. In 88 days I will hit three digits. That is my aim.)
Being legal doesn't make things morally right. Plenty of legal things are morally wrong. And in my opinion porn producers are as morally corrupt as drug dealers
Exactly. I wanted to comment the same thing. That becomes even more obvious, when you compare different countries with each other. What's legal in one country might be illegal in another country. What then? Is the action morally right or wrong then? If you try to follow a moral consequence out of the legality alone, you're stuck now. So, a moral judgement can't be based on the law.
I have noticed NoFap threads going off the track recently. This thread, for example, started fine, as a reasonable discussion. We all can see what has happened. Hateful, stupid, and just plain idiotic comments are creeping into this site. I am sure some are here just as trolls. I am sure some guys are trying to be funny. It's not working. Go away, you morons just looking for attention.
With all due respect, I don't consider this hateful, though I do think it's irresponsible. I have never posted anything life this before, and I'm conscience stricken and do not wish to influence others. To the moderator and poster I apologise and have deleted.
I humbly concede. You are under no obligation to believe me. I am glad you called me out. I'm not trying to prove anything, it was a bad post, full stop. Sorry to all.
You take the story so literally its funny. No insult intended you do realize the majority of the bible is based on allegory or metaphor right?
Have you ever thought of the metaphorical context of that story? If not you should take a closer look
I will thanks @DeepParkWater. Though one guy says Eden was real and God is true. But I guess this doesn‘t really add some value to the OP. We better leave it here. Whatever helps is helpful. And whatever each one of us needs in order to heal from any addiction that is not harming others should be fine.
Agreed your post just hit a spot in my mind because i had a "woke" moment when i saw the metaphor behind the story of the garden of eden
Take into consideration both what sciencd and religion claim to be true. Evolution and a metaphorical garden. Do some.research or just go to science museum about human evolution. Take a look at how the brain evolved how communication evolved. Why would a philosopher call prehistoric time a garden? What was so bad about their modern time that they glamorized prehistoric time? What defines good vs evil. You get the picture? Like you said though this is deviating away from the OP feel free to shoot me a message if you wanna talk about the matter
Hm ... we communicated long before the spoken language came into being. What defines good vs evil is our judgement. Judgment is gathered thinking. Gathered thinking is called memory which is the accumulation of past experience then turning into thoughts. Prehistoric time was non-verbal. The here and now. So the start of speech, naming and labelling meant past, future and so the end of the garden area?
