Bryon, those are some astounding numbers. I had no idea. I don't remember the exact stats, but a few years ago Promise Keepers did a questionnaire with the men at one of their conferences. A disappointingly large percentage of men admitted accessing porn in some way in the very recent past. Sadly, this is an issue that I think the church is largely ignoring, although I do see some pockets of support here and there. xxxchurch comes to mind.

Sometimes, I think the likes of Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson could maybe spend a little less time condemning the non-Christians in our country, and do a little more to support healing and spiritual growth within the Christian community.
