Pastors: porn a big problem among members

Pornography
“Most pastors believe pornography has adversely impacted the lives of their church members, but almost half cannot estimate what percentage of their congregation views porn.”

I think part of the problem is how ‘porn’ is defined. Apparently it’s OK to watch scantily clad people simulate sexual acts as long as it is on TV or rated PG/PG-13. It’s even acceptable to ogle very young girls flaunting their bodies as long as Disney produces it, or they sing country music. Perhaps if church leadership stopped tolerating filth, the membership would stop swimming in it.

  1. How would you define “porn”?
  2. Please cite the Disney produced media referenced here: “very young girls flaunting their bodies “
  3. And a PG rated film with simulated sexual acts
