I have come to the conclusion that you do not know the definition of pornography.

BA you are either blind or stupid, or indeed both! Television and cinema are both plagued with porn, mostly of the soft porn variety; but porn nonetheless. I have had this conversation with other people and most agree that their is too much violence and porn on the TV or in the cinema. Another example of soft porn is the music scene, watch any Britney, Rhianna or Madonna video and witness half dressed women in seductive poses/dance routines. Soft porn is what it is and its becoming more acceptable which is obvious by your comments.

I know what I am talking about BA, obviously you don't!

Oh, please.

You sound as if your brain is scrambled regarding this matter.

Right, you've figured out, but most people can't figure it out, they don't have the brains or they don't have the will. I don't think it's their fault. These people need a moral authority. Better they sit reciting the Rosary than sit staring into the flickering blue screen being programmed to buy useless junk they can't afford.

People have their own moral compass, its their choice. A moral authority is not needed, its just another form of dictatorship. The Catholic church itself is plagued by priests who sexually abuse children, so the moral authority is argument is flawed! Also reciting the rosary is also useless!

religion is not the answer.

So, I suggest you get with the present.

The Catholic Church is ridden with pedophile priests.

in answer to your first two points:-

today the catholic church does have an iron grip on many people's lives, its not difficult to find examples of this. BA, I am "with the present", your the one lagging behind!

in answer to your final point:-

agreed.

There are many people who are Catholics, but to say that the church has an iron grip on their lives is inaccurate.

Maybe in the past, but not in the present.

Therefore, it is you who is lagging behind.

Like it!

However, many people are incapable of following their own moral compass so they look to religion, which, as you say, within the Catholic Church is flawed NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT IS RIDDEN WITH PEDOPHILE PRIESTS; THAT'S JUST ONE REASON AND, BTW, I COULDN'T CARE ANY LESS WHAT THE POPE HAS TO SAY.

Dude, I never said that pornography and/or abortions did not exist before 1958.

You're misquoting me and have been banned.
