Is Pornography an Evil in Our Society?


Cupid's Treasure, a Stefko Boulevard sex shop, has been receiving unwanted attention from a group intent on forcing the business to close. The King's Men, a Catholic pro-life group promoting "masculine spirituality," has been picketing the adult book store. Founder Mark Houck credits his group with shutting down 12 sexually oriented businesses.

"We've had patrons come to us and thank us for doing this," said Houck. "They are grateful." Calling pornography an "evil in our society," Houck was particularly upset that a sexually-oriented business is located across the street from Valley Farm Market, where it can be seen by children. "This brings sexual deviance to the community," he insisted.

The King's Men was sued by Adult World, another sexually-oriented business in the Quakertown area, following a similar protest in which it was alleged that protesters sprinkled holy water and buried miraculous medals on the property. A federal court dismissed the lawsuit.

  1. Jim Gregory was known to have strong opinions about this subject. The swarthy man of steel was once an artists model, or so the story goes. He posed naked for students who marveled at his perfect muscular form.

    There were rumors that photos of those session exist and may be part of some collections of both men and women. Jim Gregory was for decency and while he was the perfect male subject, he was not in favor of the pornographic use of his awe inspiring physical visage.

  5. Until these people started picketing this business, and Bernie wrote this article about their picketing, I had no idea the place even existed. Could well-meaning control freaks and moralists be the best advertising this business has had, and for free, too?

  8. These people are ridiculous, picketing outside a perfectly legitimate business! Stop forcing your puritanical views on everyone else. Some adults enjoy sex, and even (gasp!) porn. As far as kids seeing these establishments from the outside, these businesses are clearly labeled as "adult" bookstores, and responsible, mature parents have no trouble explaining the nature of them in age-appropriate terms.

  9. "evil" or just not healthy?

    I would suppose pornographers and pornography is protected under the first amendment.

    That being said they should have to be compliant with OSHA worker rights and laws like any legitimate business.

    Are they following OSHA guidelines regarding blood and bodily fluids?

    If not, I believe that material should be secured as evidence of a OSHA violations and I think OSHA should enforce worker health and safety laws.
