This feels very "I need to take out the plank from my own eye before I can remove the sawdust in someone else's eye".
I know someone who calls himself a Christian but he watches po*n because he says it's just entertainment and that he doesn't watch it for lustful reasons.
I don't understand how a Christian can think it's ok and not a big deal to watch that stuff. I have watched it in the past and there's been times when I fell into temptation and watched it again but I felt guilt and shame afterwards and it's been a long time since the last time.
Now, this is where I might be a hypocrite: I watch TV shows with supernatural content (demons, witchcraft etc). My favourites are Buffy, The Vampire Diaries and Charmed (I'm specifically mentioning the supernatural ones).
It feels like watching those is more just entertainment but watching po*n is sinful.
I rarely watch those shows but sometimes I do.
What are your takes on this?
