Pornography

Guest: Richard Neitzel Holzapfel, Professor of Church History  Pornography accounts for 30 percent of all data transferred over the Internet, and 90 percent of children ages 8-16 have viewed it at least once. It’s been linked with low self-esteem and lower marriage rates in young men. Pornography is working its way into homes and families. Parents struggle with how to protect their children against its effects, given how likely they are to be exposed.  Richard Neitzel Holzapfel is the faculty advisor for the student club here on campus dedicated to educating people about the harms of pornography. Holzapfel is a professor of religious studies.
