This week there is a UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO INFLUENCE LEGISLATION TO PROTECT CHILDREN FROM INTERNET PORNOGRAPHY.

Read on.
It is vitally important that Ed Vaizey MP, Minister for Culture,
urgently receives strong public support for his round table meeting
with British Internet Service Providers on 7 February 2011.

A friend of mine who is a prophetic prayerful lady sent me this email today. I really want to support this. PLEASE join me in doing the same. I don’t want Sam, Ben and Tom accessing pictures and DVD footage of adults and children in pornographic situations. This legislation could actually prevent this.

1. On behalf of Claire Perry MP, who suggested the ‘opt in’
initiative in her Adjournment Debate, I would urge you to fill in
your name, address and organisation (if appropriate) on the letter to
Mr Vaizey below, and send this email as soon as possible, and before 7 February, to: vaizeye@parliament.uk
You may also wish to add your own comments.

2. Please also forward the content of this blog as widely as possible to your contacts including churches, clubs or other groups (please put your own name in the address box)

Thank you for your help,

Dear Mr Vaizey,

Thank you for your efforts in arranging a meeting with internet
service providers to discuss how the industry can better support
parents and help them ensure that their children cannot access
pornography.

Research clearly indicates that viewing pornography leads to an
acceptance of violent and unhealthy notions of sex and relationships,
where the objectification of women and aggressive sexual behaviour are the norm.

That is why I strongly support your initiative, suggested by Claire
Perry MP, to switch the default setting for internet pornography into
our homes to ‘off’, and implement an ‘opt-in’ system. I urge you to
promote it as robustly as possible at your forthcoming roundtable with
the ISPs in February.

Yours sincerely,
