On November 24, 1946 Theodore Robert Bundy was born in Burlington, Vermont. Theodore, or Ted as he was known, would go on to become one of America’s worst serial killers in history.
It is believed that Ted Bundy is responsible for the deaths of more than 30 people. On January 24, 1989 Ted was executed by electrocution in Florida State Prison.
The day before his execution Bundy sat down with Focus on the Family founder Dr James Dobson for his final exclusive interview.
During the interview Bundy made a startling confession. According to Bundy, every serial killer he had ever met was deeply involved in pornography. Every single one.
I’m no social scientist, I haven’t done a survey. I don’t pretend that I know what John Q. citizen thinks about this. But I’ve lived in prison a long time now and I’ve met a lot of men who were motivated to commit violence just like me.
And without exception every one of them was deeply involved in pornography, without question – without exception. Deeply influenced and consumed by an addiction to pornography. There’s no question about it. The FBI’s own study on serial homicide shows that the most common interest among serial killers is pornography.
In his article titled, We’re A Nation of Porn Addicts. Why Are We Surprised By The Perverts In Our Midst? Matt Walsh suggests our current porn-addled culture rapidly and at a very young age moves people through all three stages of becoming a sex predator.
“The first step in becoming a sex predator is to see sex as an entirely selfish exercise. The next is to deny the humanity and dignity of the other person involved. The final stage is to develop a fetish for the weird and the depraved.”
Is that not exactly the sort of porn-driven society we have cultivated? Consider the following statistics just one adult website revealed:
- In 2016 over four and a half billion hours were dedicated to porn.
- There were over 90 billion video views.
- A total of 44,000 visitors every minute of every day.
- 500 thousand years worth of porn was consumed in one year.
- Since 2015, one million years have been spent watching porn.
- 80% of men aged 18-30 admit to watching porn regularly.
- Almost 70% of men aged 31-49 watch porn.
- 50% of men aged 50-senior citizen age watch porn.
- 30% of younger men admit to watching porn daily.
- 20 years ago the porn industry was worth $750 million.
- Now, the porn industry is worth $97 billion (about 100 times higher).
- For women, the top 10 most searched for terms included: ‘threesome,’ ‘step dad and daughter,’ and ‘extreme gangbang.’
- For men, the top three searches were: ‘milf,’ ‘step mom,’ and ‘step sister.’
R.C. Sproul Jr explains, “The very pleasure of pornography is the shock of it. This explains the all too familiar phenomena of the downward spiral. Like illicit drugs, each ‘hit’ requires a stronger hit the next time to get the desired effect. What was once delightfully forbidden soon becomes all too commonplace. And so darker perversions are pursued.”
