“Pornographic or erotic stories and pictures are worse than filthy or
polluted food. The body has defenses to rid itself of unwholesome food.
With a few fatal exceptions, bad food will only make you sick but do no
permanent harm. In contrast, a person who feasts upon filthy stories or
pornographic or erotic pictures and literature records them in this
marvelous retrieval system we call a brain. The brain won’t vomit back
filth. Once recorded, it will always remain subject to recall, flashing
its perverted images across your mind and drawing you away from the
wholesome things in life.”
Elder Dallin H. Oakes, "Pornography," General Conference April 2005
