Fornication And Adultery is a Sin!Whats wrong with looking at pornography? Im declaring war!I see, so you are saying that psychological theorems are not based on studies involving empirical statistics on group research? That's a very tall claim indeed, and Freud, Jung, Maslow, etc were basing their theories on nothing more than anectodal ideas independent of any verification going on to this day? Sounds to me the only person trying to kid anyone is yourself. Wether or not you agree/disagree with psychological theory, the fact is it's a human science based on rigorous case studies and research. I would indeed: http://www.glsenco.org/Resources/organi ... atrica.htm Key words: (qv): "For a mental condition to be considered a psychiatric disorder, it should either regularly cause emotional distress or regularly be associated with clinically significant impairment of social functioning". The point is you don't agree with it, and that is known as an individual oppinion, which is your right, but it is irrespective of the scholarly debate generated during these proceedings and the right to disgaree on oppinion is inherent, while with science, application makes any such irrelevant. Curious... you state that psychological research is anectodal and therefore irrelevant, but don't feel any compunction referring to it when useful to underline your stance. I'll leave that to it's own merit. Curiously, only a couple of the links are actually of research psychology origin - the rest are lectures given by para-professionals without empirical basis, and even computer related articles, though some are valid research outcomes. Like any science, there are opposing results based on research, and the way a general concensus is reached is by establishing the results backed up by the majority of research, which so far has stated that non-obsessive and legal use of pornography is harmless. I've raised the point of obsession before, and I notice that the valid research you quoted is centred on obsessive/illegal complusions, such as child pornography and violent content - which is harmful, but not the norm. I caution you the same statement, though I would change "science" to "oppinion". But let us leave this entertaining interchange for a moment, and let me raise two question: 1) Do you differentiate between obsessive use of pornography and non-obsessive, normal use. 2) Do you differentiate between illegal porn, such as violent/child/beastiality and legal, normal adult material. It is in the differences between them that my argument is based - something you have so far confused. |
