Poll question: Would you rather watch a Porno, or go to church?
Would you rather watch a pornographic movie (genre of your choosing), or go to church?

1. Church has a better soundtrack
Hymns are pretty. Cheesy smooth humping music? Not so much.

3. Lots of hot college babes in church
Edited on Thu Nov-27-08 08:34 AM by cosmik debris
At least there were last time I was there.

Of course, I live near a large Baptist university where they do the porno and the church separately.

And did you capitalize porno but (not church) on purpose? Was that some sort of Freudian slip?

9. Well, I did not notice the capitalization error until you mentioned it.
Must have been a Freudian slip.

31. Good observation.
Edited on Wed Dec-03-08 11:12 AM by peruban
I wouldn't have capitalized either, myself. I only capitalize the word church if I'm referring about a particular faith, as in "the Church" when referring to Roman Catholicism.

10. "Butt-Sex?" Do you abhor anal sex along with your other phobias?

15. Oh hi rug ..... nice of you to chime in.
No, I do not abhor anal sex, and I cannot think of any phobias that I suffer from. Did you have a specific question or point to make that I could respond to?

Have a lovely Turkey Day!

30. I do.
It just doesn't make sense to me sticking what I pee with into what my partner poops with. I'm not saying anything against gays and that hetero couples don't do the poopchute dance, I find myself mildly attracted to good looking men, too, but I just can't get past the anal sex thing.

11. You've seen one porno film, you've seen 'em all
I don't get the attraction. I'd rather see a real story with emotionally involving characters, not a bunch of anonymous people with models' bods going at it.

14. Psst, I agree
I'll admit to a moment of frisson, but then I'm like okay, now what? The curve from whoa to dullesville has always been pretty steep for me.

28. Christian churches make me feel disgusted.
After their ranting about original sin and what a horrible waste of skin I am if I don't accept JEEBUS.

29. I admit church isn't for everyone.
Edited on Wed Dec-03-08 11:16 AM by peruban
I just get a sense of peace and joy going to church that I don't get in watching porn. Don't get me wrong, some Christian denominations scare the bejesus out of me, too - snake handlers, poison drinkers, really loud, violent, and charismatic worshiping. But I go to a more traditional church and I find it makes me feel good about myself and others. So, sure, I can see how church can make anyone uncomfortable, especially if it's pounded into you that you are bad unless you accept their personal version of Jeebus.

34. Go to a church which reflects my consciousness; no, not a porno
I remember a professor once telling us the difference between art and pornography. He said that art lifted up one's spirit and porno degrades it by the way it makes us feel. An animal can be in heat (lust). But can an animal appreciate a great work of art?
