Christian paper promotes Internet sex site
El Cajon, California - The widely-circulated Southern California
Christian Times, a conservative Christian publication,
inadvertently promoted a hard-core pornography Internet site
in its March issue. A cartoon called "Mixed Blessings,"
which regularly appears in the paper, depicted a woman pushing
her child in a stroller past a church. The message on the
church's outdoor bulletin read: www.sinners.com.
Out of curiosity, Freedom Writer checked the location on the
Internet and found that the site offered free online photos
of explicit sex acts. In an emailed note, we pointed this
out to Lamar Keener, publisher of the Christian Times.
He wrote back: "Wow, I am totally chagrined, embarrassed,
mortified - what other words can I find to describe this
incredible faux pas. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
I was caught up in how clever this church sign was in the
cartoon and never even thought that it could be an actual
site, much less of the nature it is. I called the cartoonist - and
utterly blew him away as well. He never thought to check it out."
