Grassroots Group to Show the Negative Effects of Porn on Families

 

Three Eastern Idaho communities will hear of the dangers of pornography in town-hall meetings this weekend conducted by Citizens for Decency.  The grassroots organization is dedicated to empowering people to take a stand against pornography.
 
People in Pocatello, Idaho Falls and Rexburg will hear Craig Cobia, founder of Citizens for Decency, report that up to 33 percent of Internet users go online for sexual purposes. That has a tragic influence on families.
 
"A lady came to me," he said, "she was a widowed, mother of eight, who's husband killed himself because of his pornography addiction."
 
Cobia is advocating a simple, two-step process to fight pornography.
 
"First of all become educated," he said. "And the next step is to personally take a stand against pornography and help others."
