Tackling Pornography

A few weeks ago I was present for a short discussion on pornography. Unfortunately the conversation quickly turned to women's clothing with an association being made between the two. My protestations seemed to fall on deaf ears with talk of jeggings, bikinis and immodest clothing.

Pornography is a problem and there are increasing levels of addiction and, it is increasingly accepted that there are problems within the church as well as outside the church.

I don't think that anyone would challenge the opinion that pornography is in direct opposition to Christian principals but, what I want to know is should is pornography be addressed? What sanctions, if any, should be called on? What help should be offered and what is the best way for a church to support those with porn addictions? Finally, will the local church come to a place when they can disassociate women's clothing with pornography no matter how they might feel with changing modesty levels?
