ANTI-PORN MISSIONARIES: Interesting LA times story about these guys (they have a sense of humor: it's "the number 1 christian porn site") at the AVN show. They take a laid-back approach to "porn addiction," a concept I am not sure exists in reality. I mean, it would have to be a near-total psychological addiction, and I can imagine (note I said imagine) some men getting into some kind of Skinnerian positive-response closed-and-admitting-no-one-else feedback loop. In which case these guys are here to help, but only if you want help:
"We're not here to judge anyone or to picket the show. What good would that do?" Gross says. "We decided the best thing to do was to actually be in the show and try to talk to the people in the industry in a professional and respectful manner and not be confrontational. The congregation [at Crossroads] [their home chuch --me] told us they'd be praying for us."
I'm sure they help some people. The article ends with the odd anecdote that Teri Weigel prays before she goes on stage and says three rosaries a day. To each her own, I guess.
