Pornography. A word so familiar to us yet we seems to not notice the presence of it in our lives. By definition, pornography is a creative activity (writings and graphics) with no artistic or literal value other than to stimulate sexual desire. Now we ask ourselves,
what is our position on pornography? Are we a contributor or just a silent lurker? Or are we on the opposing team? Today pornography is a legally protected expression. What would you do to limit the protection? But, would you?

"Erotica is simply high-class PORNOGRAPHY; better produced, better conceived, better executed, better packaged, designed for a better class of consumer."

-Andrea Dworkin 1946, American Feminist Critic-

"Games under attack : Addiction & Violence".


Seems to me, this is a serious issue. Addiction and violence in gaming. It's happening right in front of our very eyes. Even me, I experienced that. Violence games, fun but catastrophic! It pumps up your adrenaline and the addiction to it is unstoppable. So friends, we are now to discuss and understand this issue and provide the group with samples and arguments.

"No. I just wanted to piss you off before I killed you."

*sorry if this is offending but this is the truth in games nowadays.
