This, of course, is not a shock. However, an interview of author Pamela Paul by Rebecca Phillips did have quite a few surprises. When Paul researched pornography use, she expected it to be the activity of a few losers and loners. Nope. Here are her chilling conclusions:

… I thought, "It’s no one that I know, it’s no one who’s really well-educated or self-aware or who has been in a serious relationship. Porn is for losers who can’t get a date." And I thought porn was for kids–a phase that all teenagers go through. In fact, porn is for everyone; everyone is using pornography. I talked to people who were Ivy League-educated, people who were engaged, people who were married, people who were divorced, people who were parents of young children. It went across all socio-economic, all racial, all ethnic, and all religious lines. I spoke with men who consider themselves to be devout church-goers and one man who taught at a Jewish seminary. I talked to a monk. I talked to people of all kinds of backgrounds and beliefs, and they all used pornography.

I have a feeling this is true and yet, how often does anyone ever heard it talked about? Perhaps it’s because we as a society have bought into the lies of the sexual revoltion. It’s actually quite scary that so many people are getting a perverted view of sexualility, many no doubt from a young age. Sadly, a good deal of them, especially the religious users, are probably addicted. The Catholic Church’s supposedly "backwards" stance seems more and more prophetic.
