 The legacy of desensitivity to pornography began with Hugh Hefner. Without saying, it is enough to report that police investigators, in the sex-crimes units that have expanded roughly in proportion to mass-market "adult material," rarely conclude that the rapist or child predator lacked for pornographic inspiration before committing the crime. As to those "major beneficiaries" of porn, you won't find too many women these days who think that the world is better because of Playboy or the smug, selfish ethic it has always purveyed. For good reason has the Playboy Foundation long been a benefactor to NARAL Pro-Choice America and Planned Parenthood: The Playboy Philosophy has always been for the ladies, too, all right--just so long as they remember what they're good for, don't get too sentimental and feel grateful when the playboy in their own life offers to pay for the misguided consequences of sexual lust. One hesitates to speak harshly of an old man, who somewhere along the way must have done a few worthwhile things. But then... OpinionJournal - Taste |

Hustler Not a Comfort
I realize that the infamous pornographer Larry Flynt and Rev. Jerry Falwell were friendly adversaries. And I know they shared podiums while debating on college campuses. But that doesn't qualify the smut king to appear on national TV to comment on the life of the Christian leader who fought against immorality and most everything else Flynt represents.I agree with Dr. Judith Reisman, a former consultant to both the U.S. Department of Justice and the Ventura County (California) prosecuting attorney. It's appalling that CNN chose Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine, to appear on Larry King Live to discuss the passing of Rev. Falwell on May 15. The smut magazine owner appeared on the program the following day.
Reisman was an important participant in the prosecution and ultimate conviction of one of Flynt's business associates, Hustler cartoonist Dwaine Tinsley. Perspectives: CNN, Larry King 'pile on' by inviting pornographer to ... |

Take Action The Maryland State Board of Education has ruled in favor of a sex-education curriculum adopted last month for use in Montgomery middle and high schools, finding nothing illegal in the new lessons on sexual orientation and condom use, school officials said yesterday. In a 17-page June 27 opinion, the state panel declined to "second guess the appropriateness" of the curriculum approved by the Montgomery County Board of Education. Instead, the state panel said it could reverse the county's action only if it violated the law. And after reviewing more than a dozen claims alleged by curriculum opponents, the state board found no violation.

Honor God established America, working in and through ordinary men and women who trusted in Him. They were Christians who had character, honor and high moral standards—people of prayer who put God first and sought Him continuously for direction and intervention. I believe because of their commitment to Him, America has been greatly blessed.
Today, however, America has fallen from her high position of integrity and honor that was based upon the foundation of God’s Word. Her character, which was once the talk of the nations, has faded because she has turned from the One who made her great and gave her such honor. The only way we can reverse the dilemma of moral decline is for each of us to seriously seek the face of God and take the steps necessary to see change
