*chuckles* What I find is funny is the lack of replies to this, in any shape or form. Maybe they dont find you interesting, Rad4.

I wasn't expecting people to say "OGM, thank you rad, I've been masturbating constantly for the alst 12 hours, and I want to stop." Pornography is a real issue that people face, and I thought I'd place a link for people to go to for information on ways to overcome. This is a personal issue with people, not one to discuss openly. Yet, it is a major problem among teenagers and young adults, and most people are afraid to address it. If there are 20 replies about how stupid it is, and how much of a ripoff it is, yet one person is helped by it without me even knowing, then it's worth it.
Urgh. It's funny how they're making money based on the things they stand against.
Masturbate too much? Buy a save the kittens t-shirt for $15! Look at porn too much? Spend $975 for one person or $1,750 two people to get it sorted!
Excuse the blasphemy, but jesus :Ding christ. How can you charge someone $975 for a "porn addiction" (Something that isn't an addiction at all)?
Now throw in that the rest of the site is either them being arrogant or smarmy, throw in a few "WE KEEPIN' IT REAL FOR DA KIDZ" and all you have left is a pretty funny ironic website name.

Granted, the counseling money is high, but some people are pretty bad off, and for some serious counseling by someone who "specializes" in dealing with the specific problem, it might be an average cost, I don't know. As for the tshirts and stuff, I think they're funny, and they get the message out to other people with a problem in a way that word of mouth never would.
As far as it being arrogant and smarmy, I think you're really missing the boat. If arrogance lies in the fact of their hate mail, or by their matter of fact writing, I'd say it's because thay want you know people are against it, in the religious community and the secular. THey're being hit on all sides, but they are following the path set before them. And let's face it, when you're dealing with a touchy issue such as pornography, there is no "light" way to deal with it. Yeah, they're out there, but they're trying to do something to help others, but all most people want to do is defensively tear it apart. Try looking past the cheezy commercials and odd catch phrases. There are prayer boards, where you can know that someone out there is specifically praying for you. And software where you can have someone else keep you accountable. Or just a good bit of information to help guide you to a place where you can overcome.
