It's not porn that ruins a marriage, it's usually the wife's unhealthy prudery and insecurity that ends up ruining the marriage. It's true that many Christian marriages have ended due to the husband's porn hobby being discovered by the wife, but the problem is with the wife, not the hubby. Men naturally desire sexual variety, and many who are married prefer to satiate themselves in this regard by using porn, rather than having affairs. That can be a very healthy way to manage what is a very real issue for married men. Yet, because of backwards religious teaching, many women believe that, when their husbands use porn, they are essentially betraying them. This is another example of conservative Christianity blaming the secular culture for a problem it has created itself. If it had a healthier view of human sexuality (one more in line with human nature, perhaps), a whole lot of family misery could be avoided.
