"Feel like you're addicted to porn? Your religion could have something to do with it.
Compared with their less spiritual peers, people who identified as very religious were more likely to have a perceived Internet pornography addiction, no matter how much porn they actually consumed, according to a new study.
"We were surprised that the amount of viewing did not impact the perception of addiction, but strong moral beliefs did," the study's lead author Joshua Grubbs, a doctoral student in psychology at Case Western Reserve University, said in a statement.
The rise of pornography on the Internet has been followed by hot debates about what all this widely available explicit material is doing to the hordes people who look at it."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.

That artwork was commissioned by a big Pharma company here in Philadelphia, sits on their property, and has nothing to do with the labels.
The artist is Greek Orthodox.
Here's another image at the big Pharma company:

If anything, it reminds me of a drug commercial that sets you free from cramps or scalp itch or something.

is frankly largely considered normal. Those who think otherwise tend to be either fundamentalists, or very old folk who're stuck in their ways.
