Women and porn

But yeah, unfortunately the same can't be said for all parties involved. :P

Who is the wronged party where porn is concerned?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

He seemed to be pointing out there was demand for hitman too, to draw into question julia's dismissal of the hitman argument. What he's done is highlight even more how tenuous the porn/hitman comparison is (and should be left alone really), since there's no immediate victim with porn. Those downfalls you mentioned are a step removed from the basic question of the morality of the act itself, a stretch that doesn't need to be made when talking about the product of a hitmans work.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Regarding Pascal's Wager and MetheGelfling/Seris-

so supposing I "love thy neighbour", and follow all of these other moral christian codes too - or at least follow them as well as the average christian - and at the end of it the only puzzle piece missing to seperate me from some no-more-well-intentioned-than-me christian, would be the fact that I didn't believe in god - you're saying this god would turn me away from heaven for this, towards eternal damnation in hell?

Why is this a god an atheist would want to even make the effort of believing in?
