Exposure to Internet pornography can lead teenagers to have sex at a younger age, according to a study published in the journal CyberPsychology and Behavior.Researchers found that 12- to 17-year-old boys who regularly viewed pornography became sexually active as much as four years earlier than their peers. Girls in that age group who viewed porn became sexually active slightly earlier than their peers. Researchers also found that these teens were more likely to initiate oral sex.

Daniel Weiss, media and sexuality analyst for Focus on the Family Action, said exposure to pornography is damaging at any age, but much more so for teens and young children.

Study: Americans Still Know Right from Wrong

by Devon Williams, associate editor, Focus on the Family

‘Humans are created with a sense of conscience …with a sense of right and wrong.’

The majority of Americans — 87 percent — believe in the concept of sin, according to a new study by Ellison Research. Sin was defined as “something that is almost always considered wrong, particularly from a religious or moral perspective.”

The study, conducted in August, asked more than 1,000 adults to decide whether 30 behaviors were sinful. Adultery was most often described as sinful behavior (81 percent), followed by racism (74 percent), and drug use (65 percent).

“It’s encouraging to know that in this day of moral relativism, that a majority of Americans still recognize and believe that there is such a thing as sin,” said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council.

Other behaviors considered sinful by a significant portion of Americans included abortion; homosexual activity; pornography; gossip; swearing; and sex before marriage.
