Researcher Samuel Perry said in the Independent, “Those who used pornography at the highest frequencies seemed to be more religious in terms of prayer frequency and worship attendance than those who used pornography at more moderate levels.
“Specifically, those who viewed pornography weekly or more in 2006 reported praying more often and attending worship services more often by 2012 compared to those who viewed pornography monthly or less earlier on.”
Published in the Journal of Sex Research the paper claims that regular porn watchers have fewer religious doubts.
Perry claims that the result was more likely to be down to guilt, or the fact that some people have watched so much porn that they no longer feel guilty about it.
Do you watch a lot of porn? Are you religious? And what do you think about this research?
