Hey Everyone,
Since my original thread has been actively resurrected (sorry, wisebeardman!), I'm going to take a post I just added to the current discussion in that thread and use it as the basis for a spin-off discussion:
What are your thoughts?
Since my original thread has been actively resurrected (sorry, wisebeardman!), I'm going to take a post I just added to the current discussion in that thread and use it as the basis for a spin-off discussion:
I'm the original writer of this thread (about whether or not should accept that their future spouse will probably watch porn), and even I had to check when this was written (almost a year ago.)
Most of my other threads get maybe a couple hundred views, at most... So is it by coincidence that this thread now has nearly 2,500 views? I think not.
When I originally wrote this thread, I was thinking about the fact that at any given moment, you can do a search for threads about members who are struggling with porn and the system will practically go into overload with the number of matches.
It's a fact that many, many Christians are battling an ongoing fight (meaning current and daily) with this issue.
Does this mean that every Christian who is currently fighting to stay away from porn (and often stumbles) should automatically be disqualified for marriage and be seen as unfit material for a spouse?
If that's the case, then according to that thinking, there are a good number of Christians today who are apparently unmarry-able.
This was the discussion question I originally had in mind when I wrote this thread.
