Porn and Christians

It's not stereotype it's called a doctrine. We all know what which Christian denomination enforces and command of their subjects, so there is no "I" in it, no individuality, there is only bad Christian that doesn't follow the rules and is going to hell or a good Christian who follows the code.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So based on that and my OP am I a "bad" Christian or a "good" one?

I think King is a great example of a very good Christian. Smile
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Like he said, stereotype.

When I was a churchgoer, I don't once remember sex being discussed. That indicates to me that it is not doctrine, but rather the personal views of believers.

When I met my girlfriend, she was a Christian and was still dirty as hell, I don't think most Christians I've met take religion that seriously to stop enjoying sex - If anything, many think that as long as it's only with your partner everything is allowed, and if you sin it's just a minor sin Tongue

Yeah, but he was a dirty Catholic.
