Without Godly controls, extreme criminal behavior overwhelms normalized life. This is the man who yesterday confessed that he imprisoned his daughter in an underground chamber for 24 years and fathered her seven children. Read about the profile for this pedophile. As the world reacts with shock to the news that a man held his daughter captive for 24 years and fathered her seven children, police, medical professionals and those who know Josef Fritzl have begun to piece together just what sort of man he is. What is evident is that Fritzl, a 73-year-old retired electrician was somehow able to lead a double life for more than two decades. At his home on Ybbsstrasse in the quiet town of Amstetten, east of Vienna, he lived with his wife Rosemarie and their three children. But with them also lived three of the children Fritzl fathered by his daughter Elisabeth, imprisoned in a basement dungeon with another three of the children she bore after being raped by her father. Fritzl told his wife that his missing daughter had dropped the unwanted children off at the house because she could not take care of them, police said, forcing his daughter to write letters to strengthen his case. It was a deception he maintained from 1984 until just days ago.  Police spokesman Franz Polzer said that Rosemarie Fritzl was unaware of the deception. "Let me also add that we know the suspect not only possessed an increased sexual potency, he's also very dynamic, imperious and quite authoritarian in his conduct and relationship to his existing family," Polzer told a news conference Monday. Polzer added that Fritzl made clear to his wife and the children living with them that the basement area was out of bounds. He bought food for his captives and took it to them in evening. Medical professionals have also offered their interpretations of the character of Fritzl. Clinical psychologist Dr. Kristina Downing-Orr told CNN: "What is chilling about this case is the cold, sociopathic detachment that Josef F[ritzl] went through year after year, decades even, to hide his crimes. "It was as if there was no remorse, no empathy for his daughter, for his grandchildren, for his wife. That's what's chilling.".  What about his addiction for pronography? Read On

The viewing of pornography persists as a problem for members of U.S. churches, according to a recent article.  John W. Kennedy, consulting editor for Christianity Today magazine, recently published some disturbing findings while collecting information for an article titled “Help for the Sexually Desperate.” Through his studies, Kennedy found one evangelical leader who questioned the accuracy of the finding that “50% of Christian men have looked at porn recently.” In response to his own skepticism, the leader surveyed his church members and found that: 60% of Christian men had viewed porn within the past year; 25% of Christian men had viewed porn within the past 30 days.   But it’s not just men who struggle with pornography. Other research found that women accounted for one in three visitors to adult Web sites. Overall, Kennedy discovered that experts believe tens of millions of people are actually sex addicts.
