One mad mother!

I am a mother of 6 children ages 12, 8, 4, 3, 1 and 6 mos. I just took my 12 year old to B&N last weekend to use a gift card he had received. I've been in there MANY times and never encountered such a thing. Thank goodness! I would have been mortified and would have done exactly what this father did! My son and I still have balances on our gift cards but will never again support this company until they remove that smut from their shelves. It's bad enough we have to put up with this junk on television (we recently downgraded our cable package to the "family package" to get rid of most of the filthy channels). Seems we'll have to order books from an online only company like Amazon or start going back to the library and checking them out. Very sad.

I am so glad I found out about this before visiting B&N with my 4 small children, as I had planned to do this weekend!

Porn on display

We recently got a new Barns and Nobles in our area. My husband and I stopped in to check it out. The first table I saw, not far from the front door, had a display of porn books. I turned around and walked out. I will NOT be returning to their stores untill they remove these books. Any child could have seen or reached these books.

A church alot like Barnes and Noble

I applaud you and all that you are doing to take a stand for what's right. Too many times we IGNORE things and let them go, for whatever reason, when we should be standing up for Christ. I am currently battling a HUGE church in the Houston area over the fact that they are allowing someone who has two reported incidents of child molestation against him with Children's protective services and has also admitted to a porn addiction, to be a Deacon and a Director of a Parenting class as well. What are your thoughts on that??
You're my hero!

- a church a lot like B & N

Has the man repented? Pray for him, for the church, for protection of the children. Teaching parenting is allowed, teaching children is not. Churches are full of porn addicts, men and women. I personally know of at least 8 in my church. We are working to help them turn from it. Pray against porn. Christianity Today has a section on their site called Your Church Safety Alert Bulletin. It may have some advice on the best way to deal with this. You can get their newsletter in email. But please keep up the prayers, pray porn out of your church. And thanks for reminding me, I need to do the same, not just on Sundays when we drive by the porn places to get to church. Bless you, don't give up, just be sure to do it God's way.

This is the first I have heard of this, but let me tell you if I were in your position I would be FURIOUS!!! I have three little girls, 8, 6, and 3, also a little girl due July 27th and if one of my children picked something like that up that would be it. It would take all i had to do exactly what you are doing, even though i have no actual position in this world. But let me tell you I would make myself into a position just to make sure that this never happened to another child, because it should have never happened to your child. It is too bad that the manager of this bookstore did not bring it to the attention of the authorities instead of letting it get to this. Makes ya kind of wonder, is the manager invloved somehow, or is it really that the store did not want the publicity. Sick, Sick people in this world it's too bad our children have to be subjected to this kind of filth.

Pornography Found in Bathroom and on Clearance

Today I found a pornographic book in the ladies' bathroom at the Barnes and Noble in Bolingbrook, Illinois. The pornographic book, featuring full nudity and fornication on the cover, is on clearance. The clearance box holds various titles, including books for children. Thus, no matter what type of book you are searching for, you will find pornographic books. Barnes and Noble makes absolutely no effort to keep degenerate books in one section, away from other products. I support Brannon's boycott. I also pray one day pornography won't be sold anywhere, and those who do sell it will be arrested and stopped.

I strongly object to the display of pornographic materials in a place where children can view them.

Well done brother! I am behind you 110% and have written a review of their pornographic book, even though I've never actually seen it. (I don't need to.) I call for all readers to boycott this chain until they purge themselves of this vile product. You're in my prayers, stay strong in the Lord.

Wrong

The only freedoms and rights we have are given to us by Jesus Christ, and those don't include the lust of the eyes or lust of the flesh, or homosexual relations; no matter whether child or adult.
You are wrong, my friend. The constitution gives me all these rights as a citizen, regardless of my religion. It is then my responsibility as a Christian to keep away from wrongdoing.

Let me ask you something. Have you ever battled with bad thoughts/actions because of what you are looking at? to use the expression GIGO (Garbage in/Garbage out), I would argue that everything we watch/listen/do influences us and shapes who we are. True we can choose to view things like this. But simply because everyone else is doing it, does not make it right. The Bible does say if you even look at a women (or a man) and lusteth, you have already commited adoluatry. Thoughts lead to actions and actions lead to results/consequences...
