I inadvertedly found it hidden in a closet (play laugh tract here) and read it.
He looked at magazines, went to X-rated theaters in SLC, hired women to pose for him in his "photography" hobby etc. and I looked at a variety of magazines and videos growing up.
I don't remember the LDS "War on Porn" back then at all. Do you?
In the above linked article I hear an echo from my past. I think Packer or someone talked about how you can't unsee porn. The quote in this article is laughable. It is like you have a porn service running in your head 24/7.
They went from pictures stuck in your head to "Brainstorm."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNiZP2G-nEMI knew looking at porn was a sin and ala Kimball I could be led down a path to Mormon Hell if I didn't stop it but it was a more a sinful and dangerous (because of where it could lead you) habit back then and not an addiction which is now the bad place itself.
It is like they went from saying porn is a gateway drug to it being the destination drugs. Why?
