Prostitutes, massage parlors, adult bookstores, strip joints, peep shows, female impersonators, gay baths, singles bars, sadomasochist leather shops they ve become as much a part of urban America as skyscrapers and parking meters. But that s just the big city. Yet a mile away from our church building a tavern features nude dancers. Want ads in a nearby community college s newspaper solicit homosexual partners. The convenience store down the road stocks a dozen pornographic magazines and a rack of porno novels.
Incest is at epidemic proportions.
Whether at daycare centers or in prostitution-pornography rings, child molesting makes the papers every week. So do rape, sodomy, and serial sex murders. Organized clubs of transvestites, sadomasochists, and pedophiles have joined homosexuals by coming out of the closet and actively lobbying for their rights. Television, movies, radio, books, magazines, newspapers, and music all constantly bombard us with sex. Even the scientific journals seem preoccupied with sex.
