    "Maybe that person has committed suicide, and what you're watching is the very brokenness that led them to believe that their life was so meaningless that they would rather die than live, and you're taking momentary pleasure in very real pain."
    Not many things have left me speechless, but this left me completely speechless.

    This guy had been given Genetic Advantage, or Genetic Privilege. 6'2" probably using Tren at one point.
    Looked Totally naïve in his entire testimony.
    Big difference in life for a man who is 6'2" compared to a man who is 5'8 or 5'9, life is way easier for this guy.

    Can you interview people who actually "enjoy doing porn "...eg, starring in the films,..I've seen a few which I thought this is crap, ( overduding) ...I thought that helga sven was beautiful..

    To get free from porn you have to be strong and not let people stigmatize you into believing there is something wrong with you for doing it! Something is wrong with them for watching or seeing it, and that is absolute!
    You are a human being created by God! and if He allowed you to get into porn, then it is nothing to be ashamed of. Do not let the "Christians" shame you, do not let unbelievers shame you.
    1 Corinthians 7:17-24 "Were you a slave when you were called? Don't let it trouble you - although, if you can gain your freedom, do so."

      Hey, I see what you’re saying, but the Bible is clear that sexual immorality is dangerous and leads to spiritual death. Two verses come to my mind:
      Colossians 3:5
      “Therefore, put to death what belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, list, evil desire, and greed, which is idolatry.”
      Galatians 5:24
      “Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”
      If you are a Christ-follower, you are called to be set apart from the world. To live in it and not be of it. There is no life found in pornography, and it grieves the Father’s heart. God “allowed” Joshua to follow his desires and have a career in porn because of free will. This video shows that working in the porn industry was the most damaging thing he could have done to his life. I guarantee you that if he could re-do his life, Joshua would have chose to never look at or partake in porn, ever.

      @@jamiedexter2022 Unfortunately, you believe works can save you and not motive, which means your heart. Too hard to explain in comments only. I understand your perspective, but you need to get out into the real world and mature in your faith in Christ to understand what I mean. One thing you learn as you grow in your faith is that religion defines things black and white, not the bible. Jesus was the example to that.

      Also, sorry to sound so accusatory.
      I am just very angry with "Christians" who beat people with the word of the bible taking the Lord's name in vain trying to win the opinion they have by using the bible as a weapon on people instead of loving them.
      Even God doesn't do that and He is right in everything, so why do we? Stop shaming people. That's the devil's tactic.
      We can't judge anybody. No, not one. If we have limits, don't hang around that person and tell them exactly why. Like you just said in your comment, tell them that, but make it known that that is your conviction. You have no idea how God is working on their heart. So don't condemn yourself by judging them, and I don't say this to you personally but to everyone who reads the comments.

      Christians are called to judge righteously and use discernment. They are called to call out sin and preach the gospel and call people to repentance. The way you are describing it anyone can do whatever they want and you can't say anything that's considered negative. You are saying that just because God allowed someone to do something that he approves of it, that not the case. We all have free will to do what we want that doesn't mean God loves what we are doing. God wants us to live a holy life, and honor and put him first. Ted bundy and various other murderers and rapist did what they did for so long God didn't put a end to it right away. Does that mean that God approved of it? No it was still a sin God ways are not our ways we don't always understand things from his view we just have faith that he knows everything is perfect and good. He is fair so we trust his judgement even if we don't understand. Also you said that there is nothing wrong if someone acts in porn but there is something wrong if someone watches it. That doesn't make sense if what you are doing is pure and good then there would be nothing wrong in someone viewing it. If they didn't decide to do porn then no one could watch it so they have their part in it as well. If nobody should watch it then the content is not any good.

      Also shaming people for doing wrong is not of the devil. If somone is doing porn they should be ashamed of their selves.
