Apologetics Against Pornography #1

Jesus Loves Porn Stars Sticker from XXX Church

This blog and OC Apologist as a whole focuses on Christian apologetcs.  The following are statistics pulled from www.xxxchurch.com, a Christian site dedicated to revealing the darkness of pornography, providing help to addicts, as well as share that Jesus loves porn stars, too!  Jesus died for them and their sin, as well as the sins of the whole world.  For this series, which I'll ad to periodically, I'll to my best to provide a defense (an apologetic) against pornography.  In the world today, porn is considered normal!  It's considered natural, and often times it's considered healthy.  It's not! 


Check out the following statistics concerning the relationship of Christian pastors with porn.  Clearly, this is an apologetic issue.  Christian Apologetics is defending the faith, and if these stats aren't lying, then this is something the faith needs defense against.
