People pay for internet porn?

He's actually very eloquent.  I don't understand the concept of sex addiction.  Last I heard, it's considered a need, though not to the degree of food.  How can one be addicted to a need?  Isn't that a tautology?

I think I might be addicted to water. I can't get enough of it man.

That pastor is addressing a serious problem in a very approrpriate way, rather than all-too-common pitchfork march. He raises som very interesting points about the social perceptions as well.

He kinda sounds like Matthew McConaughey.

Yea, Im sure his reputation as a pastor took quite a beating for that, though I really respect for what he did.

It must have been a challenge just bringing it out in the open. The notion I'm getting, regarding the "red" states, is how tough it can be facing such realities, especially when everyone around is trying to "sweep it under the rug," as they say.
