Redskins Porn

I know a fellow who is struggling with a porn addiction. He's older than I am and has been married more than 30 years. He and his wife have reached a crossroads in their marriage due to his consumption of porn. He describes his use of it as a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10. He doesn't seek it out, but if he comes across it on the premium channels or on the Internet, he watches it.

I'm confident that he and his wife will work this out. Both are committed Christians and they're dedicated to making their marriage work. Others are not nearly so lucky. Dig this from Psychology Today:

As a researcher and clinician who deals with couples whose lives have been turned upside down by pornography, I have had to face these questions head-on so I could better understand and help my clients navigate through them. I don't think porn is "always" the cause of divorce. In fact, I have a hard time imagining that the 500,000 divorces in the United States each year are because of porn. Nevertheless, if even 25% of the 500,000 divorce cases are due to porn, that is 125,000 marriages each and every year that are a direct result of pornography.

Meanwhile, the Washington Redskins are being pressured to change their name because some people find it offensive.

Seriously? This is a problem?

The creation and distribution of porn is defended under free speech grounds. "No censorship!" defenders say. Meanwhile, plenty of people are quite willing to censor the name "Redskins." And everyone censors the n-word.

Using words that might offend some people is horrible. Destroying marriages is fine?
