Surprisingly nowadays Christians have no issues with the evils that can be found on the Internet, e.g., pornography! As they say: “Nothing to be scandalized, this is the real world”!

Who are ashamed! Not the Christians! Even less the governments!

Who would be accountable for all these Evils on the day of the Lord?

How could the God of Israel bless our countries when Evil is now an integral part of our culture!

The LOVE OF MONEY is the root to all evil, NOT the internet.. while there are plenty of sinful things on the internet, such as porn, the internet itself is NOT the root of all evil. Though it certainly doesn't help any.. :/

Well, just like anywhere else in the world.... only if you choose to engage in it. Evil is nothing new.

There's porn on the internet? Hmmm I've not seen any...I wonder why?

There are many good uses for the internet, it's how you choose to use it that's key.

My internet is filled with flowers and bunnies.


Well... and a few crazy people who think they saw bigfoot.

I do not have small children....but I'm curious, is the parental blockers effective? Or do parents fear their children will see things at say Bobby's house? I would likely worry about that...had I small children around

I think the internet could be a good thing but there is a lot of evil on it, and it should be censored.

Evil has always been an integral part of any culture. What makes you say that Christians have no issues with evil on the internet? I must have missed that poll. It would only be an issue if you make it an issue. It says in the bible that the love of money is the root of all evil. I find that more believable than this OP.

Green moldy cheese is the root of all evil. Especially if one makes a cheese quesadilla in a dark kitchen.

The internet itself is a tool...what we choose to use this tool for is up to us. Many profess to live according to God's standards but their deeds prove otherwise...at the end of the day God is the one who judges such ones (John 12:48).

Um... If the Internet is the root of all evil... Then why have you been a member on CC since 20009? You do know this is a website on the Internet, right?

And who would you trust to do the censoring? You cannot legislate morality.

In the modern and Godless world we live in, if Christians begin to advocate censorship, it's going to get turned back against us.

We need to be extremely careful in safeguarding freedom of speech and freedom of expression... or the entirety of scripture will soon be off limits because it upsets somebody.

The internet is a priceless tool to evangelise for God. If it were not for the internet I would still be lost to Him so I thank God for it.

There are so many good things in life where evil can be found if you go looking for it.

Can self do it? Or are folks without that much self control they need someone to do it for them?

If the Internet is a problem for someone, jesus commands them to cut off their hands and gouge their eyes out....not neccessarily in that order...

Well you can legislate against rape and child abuse so you can legislate to keep stuff like that off the internet. We have censorship of TV and film but not enough.

I was wondering the same thing. Isn't it ironic that someone uses the internet to say it is evil? I don't understand this at all.
