This past weekend my son so generously shared his stomach virus with me. This was no run of the mill stomach virus. It was brutal. So, I did what I usually do when I am sick. I rented a sizable stack of movies, did some reading, and ate crackers to assuage the nausea. One of the movie highlights was World War Z. I am not typically one to jump on the Zombie bandwagon, but the realism of the movie had some appeal to me.
It certainly was not your typical Zombie film. There were not copious amounts of blood, and it had an engaging plot. I won’t spoil anything if you haven’t seen the film, but the plot in a nutshell is that some source causes an isolated group of people to become “undead” and this rapidly spreads though being bitten. The turn from being a thriving person to the upright dead takes about ten seconds. Needless to say, majority of the world turns into zombies in a short amount of time. Things unravel quickly.
While the movie certainly seems far-fetched, there is another pandemic that has spread around the world with devastating consequences. In fact, it leaves a wake of “un-dead” in its path. I am speaking of porn.
Recently, Martin Daubney, ex-editor of the smut magazine Loaded, wrote an article about his upcoming documentary called Porn On the Brain. In the documentary he discusses how readily accessible pornography is to children and the effects of porn on kids.
In the article he writes about asking a group of teenagers, “On a scale of one to ten, how likely would you say it is that boys and girls your age are watching porn online? The reply was a chorus of tens, nines and one eight.” His small-scale survey coincides with current statistics. We know that 90% of kids are exposed to porn online between the ages of 8-16. Research shows that 80% of 15-17 year olds are exposed to hardcore pornography multiple times. The average age of first exposure to pornography is around the age of 10 or 11, and this will continue to creep downward as the pandemic spreads.
Wait a minute; you are just being an alarmist. Kids that view porn come from broken homes or have been abused. That doesn’t happen in good, little Christian homes. Wake up parents. It is happening in every kind of home around the glove. It doesn’t discriminate. Daubney writes, “When I asked the children if there were parental controls on the internet at home, they all said no, their parents trusted them. They all admitted their parents had no idea what they were watching, and would be shocked if they did know.”
