Nobody necessarily said it was the sole and single cause. You're straw manning them pretty bad.

If stimulus A helps in -any- way to prevent action B, you can claim that a removal of stimulus A will likely lead to an increase in action B.

Nobody said it was the only cause, nobody said that the amountof rape would increase a thousand fold, they said "if you get rid of it, people who are relieving that tension through it, will go elsewhere, and some of them are apt to go to bad places with it."

Re: Court strikes down Internet pr0n law. (safe for work)

The problem I see, devonin, is that different people respond to different stimuli. I've seen a Law & Order SVU episode that made me think about something: Some people are more prone to responding to certain stimuli than others. If a child porn fantasy site is being viewed by a repeat child molester, then the stimuli received from that site may cause the sexual offender, whether he's trying to deny the urges or not, to respond by trying to fulfill the fantasy. However, somebody else might not respond in such a manner. It's impossible to remove every single offending stimulus from the world. You'd end up with a world like Equilibrium or some other science fiction idea. Hell, the fact that you and I or another person might have different levels of intelligence (referring to Harrison Bergeron here) might have some sort of stimulus on those with more or less of it. I realize that this is taking things a bit out of proportion, but the truth remains the same in this case.

Except that "Lessen" != "Eliminate" and "Contribute" != "Cause" nor has anybody really said so either.

If this is the case, God sounds rather like a Jackass to me.

Job?

Re: Court strikes down Internet pr0n law. (safe for work)

The book of Job is a pretty good case example of "God is a Jerk" I mean...taking a wager with Satan saying basically "This guy's such a solid worshipper that I can completely **** him over, and he'll stay loyal" doesn't sound very benevolent and loving to me.

People should just wait until they're 18 to watch it.

Christian: Job shows us that we shouldn't lose faith even when things are going bad.
Atheist: Wrong. Job shows us how ****ed up God is.
Christian: Well... well... uhh... Job gets twice as much as he had before in the end so God is cool and alive the end. >=(
Atheist: 38:4: SO WERE YOU THERE WHEN GOD LAID THE EARTH'S FOUNDATION?

Because I've been watching it for almost four years now.

I'm waiting for something revolutionary to happen.

I'd say 18+ or parental consent.

A lot of parents know it's gonna happen anyway. Some will be reasonable enough to do it IF THEY THINK THEIR KID IS READY.

But as long as it's this openly available, no one's going to really ask their parents.

I didn't realize it was the CT until now. I had clicked on the link from the forum block and hadn't bothered to look up to see that it was CT, as I thought some of the replies seemed retarded and figured it was another section. :S


Anyways, about the topic and article... Can't see the article but I see TRD's first response. I'm on the fence. I know I'll be a less-restrictive parent. People are over-sensitive, especially in the US, about sex. It's bad. But at the same time, I wouldn't want a before-puberty kid of mine running into this stuff. But that is prevented by basic software. During-after puberty? I'd encourage and teach my child(ren) about the topic and discuss all of this with them. It wouldn't be a big deal but at the same time I wouldn't want them going being exposed to everything that the internet has early on....

So I guess.... I agree with the judge.

...parental consent?

that would just take all the fun out of it.
