It offends against chastity because it perverts the conjugal act, the intimate giving of spouses to each other. It does grave injury to the dignity of its participants (actors, vendors, the public), since each one becomes an object of base pleasure and illicit profit for others. It immerses all who are involved in the illusion of a fantasy world. It is a grave offense. Civil authorities should prevent the production and distribution of pornographic materials.
Interesting... everything (or nearly enough) you said about porn I can say about horror movies, or "action" movies where you see people dying and being dismembered and whatnot.
Personally, I find it much more offensive to have such violent activities being shown to our youth, during prime-time, than the thought that they see a naked body.
