True, even if you're single it's still a sin against God and your own body. If this is something you struggle with, ask Jesus for deliverance and flee from anything that tempts you. Even if that means no social media, do what you gotta do. Porn harms EVERYONE involved God bless

Watching porn is absolutely cheating btw

@ImKingGinger Sooo wait.. Based on your logic, is Lord of the Rings bad? Or Chronicles of Narnia bad? Or even the Conjuring? Those are "Christian" type films.

The Truth About Why Christian Movies are So Bad. I’ve spent the last four years building a streaming platform and talking to people at the very top of the faith-based entertainment industry. Studio heads. Distributors. Producers. Investors. And I’ve come to a conclusion that I think is going to make a lot of people uncomfortable. Christian movies are bad on purpose. The talent is out there. I’ve met them. I’ve sat with them at 3am over whiskey and cigars listening to pitches that should have been picked up immediately. So that left a question that any Christian filmmaker could quickly answer. If the talent is there, why is everything so mediocre? It starts with an avatar named Bookstore Betty. I’m not making that up. When the faith-based film industry was being built out, it was done in partnership with Christian bookstore executives. They weren’t asking “how do we make great cinema.” They were asking “who walks into our stores and how do we sell them a movie the same way we sell them a devotional.” The target was a 35 year old woman. The tone, the casting, the conflict resolution, the soft lighting, all of it was reverse-engineered to appeal to Betty. Not to a general audience. Not to men. Not to teenagers. Just Betty. Every major Christian film you can think of relies on distribution deals with secular studios. The same studios that blacklisted almost everyone who worked on The Passion of the Christ and refused to distribute Kirk Cameron's Pro Life movie. Think about that. Passion made over $600 million on a $30 million budget. The most obvious play would have been to duplicate that movie hundreds of times like it was the MCU. But instead of greenlighting more, Hollywood blacklisted the people involved. So what did they do instead? They set up a system where they get to be the gatekeepers. They only greenlight the safest, most formulaic, most non-threatening stuff possible. Because if Christian films ever started consistently competing with mainstream entertainment, those studios would have a real problem. So they make sure that never happens. And the church helps them do it. Christian movies don’t need word of mouth. They don’t need to be good. They need pastors to bulk-buy tickets. You make a movie with a “message,” market it to churches, and pastors subsidize the whole thing by buying hundreds of tickets to hand out on Sunday. You don’t have to compete in a fair market when your distribution model is guilt-driven generosity. And the funding is even more rigged. Most of these films are funded through Donor Advised Funds, which means donors get a tax write-off for their “investment” regardless of whether the movie makes a dollar. There’s no market pressure to make something good. The donors got their deduction. The studio got their budget. And Betty got another movie about a woman who finds a journal in the attic. What would happen if someone actually came along and made faith-based content that created pop culture instead of reacting to it? I think it would instantly expose how low-effort the current industry is. It would be like when Uber showed up and embarrassed the taxi industry overnight. The monopoly only survives because nobody has disrupted it yet. The talent is there. The audience is there. The only thing missing is capital that wants disruption instead of a tax write-off.

With players increasingly looking anywhere but the classic methods to stay entertained, it begs the question as to whether fans of our beloved medium still have the appetite for "traditional" video games. bit.ly/4s8ZmQU

@Lord_Mordrak @IGN A joke is meant to be taken humorously. Frankly if the shoe was on the other foot about George Floyd with the same joke who was also a violent despicable criminal, people would legit flip a s**t on the internet.

Why would he cheat? I’m a good wife who does everything a wife should. And he in return treats me like a queen and I get to live a soft life. And yes if you’re over a certain age it’s weird to be single unless your wife died. Divorced sometimes ok depending on situation. Evil women also exist.

So I work at a men’s divorce law firm, and I see this all the time. Guys get such a bad rap when they end up divorced, especially middle-aged with kids. People love to mock their appearance on dating apps or joke about “divorced dads” like it’s funny, but it’s honestly pretty cruel. These men have usually just gone through brutal battles.. in court, with their ex, financially drained, emotionally exhausted. Many have lost a ton of money, time with their kids, and their sense of stability. Now they’re trying to pick themselves back up, put themselves out there, and find someone who actually values them as a person.. something their ex maybe never did. It’s not desperate. It’s resilient. Starting over after divorce isn’t easy, especially when society acts like you’re damaged goods or a punchline just because you’re a middle-aged dad trying to date again. Cut them some slack. A little kindness and respect goes a long way when someone’s rebuilding their life. Respect to all the divorced dads out there grinding through it. You’re not alone ♥️

@BillyLowe1 @d1tyme @killkoven @vol212320 Take your own advice my guy. They follow Jesus’ teachings just like you or I, and even believe he’s the Son of God. I pray you find acceptance and humility. They are brothers in Christ.

I got to see The Super Mario Galaxy Movie last night & sadly, I concur with our reviewer. It was hardly a bad movie, but it just wasn't that good either (I thought the first one was definitely good!). 👍 to the sound design though – effects & soundtrack! ign.com/articles/the-s…

A new game called I Am Jesus Christ comes out tomorrow on Steam. You play as Jesus and do Bible miracles like walking on water and healing the sick. It follows his life from baptism to resurrection.
