hahahahahah...oh great, this is gonna be rich..
you repressed little kid, I bet you're checking out porn, this makes you a SINNER! and you'll FRY IN HELL while the devil pours hot acid down your throat! About the only way you're gonna stop looking at it online is if you either start looking at it in real life, like I do, or completely subdue your "animal urges" and start spending more time on sites like this. then again, you can always have your cake and eat it too, by spending your time on porn sites and then confessing like every good hypocrite. I already know they've got a special place in hell for evil bastards like me, so I don't worry about completely petty things like looking at porn. I say stop worrying about what some 2000 years dead guy thinks about what you're doing, its stressful. besides, I'm pretty sure you're good to go as long as you don't do anything like rape or murder.
have fun with your one-handed typing

I'm not trying to put anyone elses advice down but although it is normal you are in the right for being concerned (and that doesnt have to be for religious reasons). What you are looking at is what some call "the new drug" because it is just as deadly and addicting as other drugs. My first advice for you is to see an addiction recovery therapist (your church leader should be able to help you find one if you want spiritual help with this). But you must take the therapy seriously and always be honest. Know they will NEVER judge you, they just want to help, but they cant help you if you dont help them to help you. Therapy is the best way to vent your most personal feelings without worrying about being judged or about anyone finding out. You can be so much better than the people out there who say "its normal." What you are looking at is so evil that it has caused the strongest families to break up, marriages to fail, serious depression problems and its been proven that majority of rape, petifilism, beastiality and sexual abuse come from looking at too much "internet." My best advice is to get help asap. Dont let this take over and ruin your life.

It is a sin to view certain things on the internet, so you are correct in calling it a sin. First, know this, ALL have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. God is a forgiving God. This is why his son died on the cross for our sins. Repent to God for your sin, ask him to forgive you yet also give you strength to overcome this habit. Mentally - tell yourself that this is something that could grow into a worst habit like a drug and you want to overcome it now before it overcomes you. This could prevent future habits in the same area but differently. Spiritually- Don't allow it to manifest. There is another sin associated with this also, knowing you are doing a sin and then continuing to do it. It's normal to be curious but abnormal to lust. Good luck dear heart and I am praying for your strength also. God is with you.

It's not that big of a deal.
Everyone has done it at one point.
There's nothing wrong with it.
But, it's one thing to do that every once in awhile and a totally different thing to go on websites like that every day.
If it's every so often that's pefectly fine.
If not just focus on other things and keep your door open so you don't get tempted to go on those kind of sites. Get out of the house or go somewhere were you aren't exposed to stuff like that.
Hope this helps.
:)
Take care.

Hey there,
okay what your doing is totally normal and everybody does it whether they choose to admit it or not is another thing.
but please dont feel like your doing something wrong because honestly your not dont be stuck in that old christian way of thinking.
im christian too but thinking like that is ridiculous and is how people were made feel years ago!
you need to change your frame of mind and how you see things as right and wrong trust me,its not a sin dont beat yourself up over something so innocent. =]
