Yes, it is wrong to view child pornography.

I'm quite sure a new member, coming here by way of a google search, would be wondering why this DadPad person felt a need to state something so obvious.

There have been 65 active threads in the last three hours alone, if you are not interested in the subject matter of a thread kindly move along....the solution to your perceived problem ain't complicated folks.

What??? Now you attempt to stifle free speech? The problem, by the way, is yours not this thread.

the problem is that you all are bitching about a problem you can solve yourselves. If you are not interesting in a conversation then go to one of the hundreds of other active conversations. Nobody is holding a gun to your head and making you read, or post.

I also get my "Blues" mixed up, Dlowan.

Hopefully, but you do realize that only the majority of readers will understand what you said. The author of the other thread will dispute your concise and accurate statements.

You mean his unsubstantiated assertions?

People like agrote cannot continue getting their jollies if they accept the truth. That's not what it's about with him. No way it's going to stop, because he has people suckered into participating with him, giving in to what he wants..

it will stop , for us at least (seeing that topic) if we all just leave it alone.

If people who like kiddie porn could be changed with mere words and opinions, there wouldn't BE any of them around


(edited. I said THIS topic, when I meant the other one. Im only firing on one cylinder today..)

This consequence needs to be weighed up against the (admittedly small) positive consequences for the viewer of the porn. I'm sure I won't persuade anyone else to acknowledge the benefit that the viewer receives by watching the porn. But as a consequentialist, I must take this into account.

Dear God.




Abusing children is immoral.

Creating child pornography abuses children.

Therefore, creating child pornography is immoral.

It is immoral to profit from an immoral act. It does not matter if the original immoral act was your action or someone else's.

Therefore, enjoying child pornography is an immoral act.
