Accessibility to pornography and the anonymity of whores is a thousand times what it was 150 years ago. As our entire society faces sexual burn-out, homosexuality is a hundred times the problem it was 50 years ago.
How does the church address this? Has the Christian church "normalized" homosexuality? Kevin Swanson interacts with Philip Yancey's blog entries concerning his recent keynote address to the Gay Christian Network Conference in Denver. Then we provide some shepherding counsel for a young man from South Africa who is caught in the web of pornography.

Great Sermon! I wondered why many young men today are soft and wussy, or hypermasculine--and when you said porn was the problem, aside from CHRIST of course, that answered it!! When women are loose, men lose direction and women arent happy as well because we want strong Christian men for husbands because there are still women who run households (keeping up the house) and wondering what happened to their husbands

Great Sermon! I especially appreciated Kevin's describing homosexuality as the "dry rot" of society--very well put. I did think you brothers were holding back in your calling to account Philip Yancey, who has now gone the way of Tony Campolo. Whatever salt there was in their works has long since been squandered. Evangelicals need to distance themselves from Yancey and Campolo. Yancey has been drifting for a long time, as any reader of his Christianity Today column can testify (and his left-leaning and modernist compromises were among the reasons I let my sub to that rag lapse). Insightful remarks on pornography, too.
