“Pornography degrades sex and humanity. Sex is an extremely delicate part of our human relationships. When you assault that and degrade it, you make it an animalistic act and it is an assault on our humanity generally.’’
( President Spencer W. Kimball, http://lds.org/general-conference/1976/10/a-report-and-a-challenge?)
Pornography
‘‘Let us all improve our personal behavior and redouble our efforts to protect our loved ones and our environment from the onslaught of pornography.’’
True To The Faith
‘‘Let us resolve here and now to follow that straight path which leads home to the Father of us all.’’
Avoid any semblance of pornography. It will desensitize the spirit and erode the conscience. We are told in the Doctrine and Covenants, “That which doth not edify is not of God, and is darkness.” Such is pornography.
Thomas S. Monson, http://lds.org/general-conference/2006/04/true-to-the-faith?lang=eng&query=pornography
A Tragic Evil Among Us
‘’[Pornography] is like a raging storm, destroying individuals and families, utterly ruining what was once wholesome and beautiful.’’
‘‘While the matter of which I speak was a problem then, it is a much more serious problem now. It grows increasingly worse. It is like a raging storm, destroying individuals and families, utterly ruining what was once wholesome and beautiful. I speak of pornography in all of its manifestations.’’
Gordon B. Hinckley, http://lds.org/general-conference/2004/10/a-tragic-evil-among-us?lang=eng&query=pornography
The Enemy With
‘‘Each of us needs to train ourselves to be bold, disciplined, and loyal men of the priesthood who are prepared with the proper weapons to fight against evil and to win.’’
James E. Faust, http://lds.org/general-conference/2000/10/the-enemy-within?lang=eng&query=pornography
To Acquire Spiritual Guidance
‘‘By careful practice, through the application of correct principles, and by being sensitive to the feelings that come, you will gain spiritual guidance.’’
Richard G. Scott, http://lds.org/general-conference/2009/10/to-acquire-spiritual-guidance?lang=eng&query=pornography
God Will Not Be Mocked
‘‘It is ridiculous to imply that pornography has no effect. There is a definite relationship to crime. Murder, robbery, rape, prostitution, and commercialized vice are fed on this immorality. Sex statistics seem to reflect a relationship between crime and pornography.’’
Spencer W. Kinball, http://lds.org/general-conference/1974/10/god-will-not-be-mocked?lang=eng&query=pornography
Enemy of My Soul
‘‘May the joy of our fidelity to the highest and best within us be ours as we keep our love and our marriages, our society and our souls, as pure as they were meant to be.’’
Jeffrey R. Holland, http://lds.org/general-conference/2010/04/place-no-more-for-the-enemy-of-my-soul?lang=eng&query=pornography
