Porn vs. Religion | Psychology Today I'm not making this up, feel free to do your own research, we have evidence that p*rn (as well as other forms of hedonism) reduce belief in God. Hedonism is absolutely a factor when it comes to atheism. |
This isn't because porn inherently makes people less religious.
This is because of the conflict between what people naturally do and what they believe.
Your article talks a lot about how religious people are more likely to have issue with their own sexual behavior. If you like porn, but you believe that God hates it. How do you resolve that? Maybe you pray to God to make you stop, but what happens if you still struggle. In a lot of instances people resolve that internal conflict by coming to the conclusion that God doesn't exist. Other people come to other conclusions.
