@Amigo,
Yes, it is a sin actually. Jesus said to look at a woman lustfully is to have committed adultery with her in your heart.
But i can tell you a very good way that might just be the way out. You are saying i just wanna stop watching it but keep doing the rest of the stuff i do, well that would not be good[it would be impossible]. You will need to change your life completely. Instead of that time of the computer, go outside, go to church, get to know more people at church, make new friends, and at every thought of going back to it, think of all the bad things it has led you to. In the beginning it will be very hard and the temptation is going to be very hard to resist, but in a few months you wont want to even look things like that. But you will need to ask for forgiveness and the revival of your heart and soul. And try to pray and read the bible also instead of going on porn. I will pray for you also. God bless you.

@Justice0fmercy,
Paul sexual hang-ups set Christianity down the dark road it is still traveling on to this day.

See the results in news reports concerning Catholic priests ongoing sexual misdeeds.


Song of Solomon

1.Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.
2.Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from the washing; whereof every one bear twins, and none is barren among them.
3.Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within thy locks.
4.Thy neck is like the tower of David builded for an armoury, whereon there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.
5.Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
6.Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.
7.Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
8.Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.
9.Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck.
10.How fair is thy love, my sister, my spouse! how much better is thy love than wine! and the smell of thine ointments than all spices!
11.Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
12.A garden inclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
13.Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard,
14.Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:
15.A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
16.Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.

Is committing adultery in real life any worse then committing adultery in your heart? If there is no difference doing it in real life is a lot more fun.

No one is saying the obvious, so I will.

If you really want to stop looking at porn you should go have sex with real women.

@pornadict123,
That's not a sin and no one can tell you if it'a a bad habit or not.
Anyway, if you have a wife, a girlfriend or something, she might be blessed by what you do. And you might as well.
So try focusing on rieal life, real people, real feelings, and say to yourself that sex is not the most important thing...

First you must realize that this is a spiritual battle. Logic and basic values are not enough to combat what your up against. Your commitment must be to The heavenly father first. If you rely on yourself. You will always fail, because eventually the flesh gets weak. Meaning that eventually your emotions, feelings, or commitment will faulter. You must be able to identify what happens when you have that urge. If you have that urge to watch porn when your bored. Than you must occupy your time, by seeking God in some form or fashion. Remember that your soul is on the line. We are living in a sin sick world where this is the norm. But if Christ himself were to return would you want to be caught sinning. I think not. You have to know your enemy. Satan does not come in a red suit and horns he uses your weaknesses which may be friends people who say this is ok or even family members. There is no wrong way to do the right thing. Seek God when you are feeling this way pray for deliverance. Sometimes you literally have to fast and pray to get rid of some Evil spirits. Remember As a Child of God evil does not have control over you unless you allow it. Expose it. Seek help from a trusted friend who you know will be honest with you and have them pray with you and give support. Try to fast one day. Give up food or water or video games or tv for a set time of the day and make this promise to God and pray throughout this time. Remember that even if it works for a while this urge will try to return so you have to be able to recognize it when it happens and seek God. Hope I have been of some help. I struggled with this problem also. So I know first hand what your dealing with. God bless you and may he keep you.

@onasanwo,
Sorry, I can't resist.

Like with all things, moderation is the key. Early on I learned that time-management is essential when it comes to internet porn. I have the best desk chair that money can buy, but still ended up with a squeaky chair and chair sores in just two months time, and all because of internet porn. Plus it caused me to have to lie to the wife. I would be in my "writing room" and the wife would turn the door knob only to find it locked. "What are you doing in there?" she'd ask.

"I'm just reading an interesting article, hon."

"But why is the door locked?"

"Oh, is it locked?"

"Yes."

"Oh, well I must have locked it by mistake."

"Yeah, well you've been locking it by mistake for the last couple months."

"Look, I've been finding it hard to focus lately, and I just don't like being disturbed when I'm reading interesting articles."

"Well I wouldn't mind hearing about the interesting articles you've been reading."

"Yeah, if you want to hear about them, I can--"

"You sound like you're out of breath or something. Why are you out of breath?"

"Uh, that's just my asthma flaring up."

"You don't have asthma."

"Well . . . yes I do."

"What the . . . Why haven't you told me?"

"Well, knowing how bad your anxiety is, I thought I'd spare you any worry over it."

"Huh? I've never had an anxiety problem. What are you talking about?"

"Oh, I must be thinking of someone else."

"Is that your desk chair squeaking? You paid a lot of money for that chair and it's only two months old, and it's squeaking? You should take it back. We could do that on the way back from the doctor's office tomorrow after he looks at those sores on your butt."

"I'm sure I can just oil it. It'll be fine."

"Oil isn't going to do anything for your butt sores. You have to see the doctor."

"No. I mean the chair."

"Oh. And hey, when are we going to have sex? You said this month for sure."

"The month ain't over yet. Don't be so pushy. You know how eagerness turns me off."

Of course at that point, the moment was gone and I was no longer in the mood to finish what I had started. So not only did internet porn cause me to lie to my wife, but it also caused me to resent her because of her intrusive interruptions. And on top of that, I had to find and read some interesting articles to share with her in order to maintain the lie. I hate reading!

So now I have a rule that I follow no matter what. Three and a half hours of internet porn a day is all I allow myself, except for Saturday nights. You gotta give yourself some leeway when it comes to rules or you'll simply go nuts.

@pornadict123,
My heart truly goes out to you. Many people struggle with this habit and greatly desire to be freed of it. A key to success for many has been to take this matter to our Heavenly Father, Jehovah God.

I know you may wonder, will God hear and respond to your prayers? The answer does not depend on your race, nationality, or social standing. The Bible assures us: “God is not partial, but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.” (Acts 10:34, 35) Do those words describe you? If you fear God, you hold him in the highest regard, fearing to displease him. If you work righteousness, you seek to do what God says is right rather than following your own will or that of your fellow humans. Do you really want God to listen to your prayers? The Bible directs you to your goal. *

Of course, many want God to answer their prayers with a miracle. Even in Bible times, though, God rarely performed such wonders. Sometimes centuries passed between one recorded miracle and the next. Further, the Bible indicates that the age of miracles ended after the days of the apostles. (1 Corinthians 13:8-10) Does this mean, then, that God does not answer prayers today? Far from it! Consider some prayers that he answers.

God grants wisdom. Jehovah is the ultimate Source of all true wisdom. He is generous with it, sharing it freely with those who want his guidance and who seek to live by it.—James 1:5.

God gives his holy spirit and all of its benefits. Holy spirit is God’s active force. There is no force stronger. It can help us to endure trials. It can fill us with peace when we are troubled. It can help us to cultivate other beautiful and endearing qualities. (Galatians 5:22, 23) Jesus assured his followers that God gives this gift generously.—Luke 11:13.

God enlightens those who earnestly seek him. (Acts 17:26, 27) Around the world, there are people who sincerely seek the truth. They want to know about God—what his name is, what his purpose is for the earth and humankind, how they can draw close to him. (James 4:8) Jehovah’s Witnesses often meet people like that and are delighted to share the Bible’s answers to such questions.

First of all it is not a sin to watch porn..I know anything you are addicted at is not good, but why don't you try to find a partner?
You can have fun with your partner, so you will feel less the need to watch porn afterwards.
