Nuns and Priests Watch Internet Porn, Pope Admits – well, so too do a lot of Protestants and Baptists
I grew up Baptist, and a lot of research and studies in the last 20 years have shown that a lot of Baptists and Protestants (mostly men but some women too) view porn.

…Priests and nuns watch pornography online just like everybody else, the pope told aspiring clerics of the Roman Catholic Church this week.
“It is a vice that many people have, many laymen, many laywomen, and also priests and nuns. The Devil gets in that way,” Francis said Monday, according to the European Times.
“And I’m not just talking about criminal pornography like that involving the abuse of children, that is already degeneration. But pornography that is a little ‘normal.’ Dear brothers, be careful about this,” he warned seminarians at a meeting in Rome.
The famously tolerant 85-year-old pope had been asked by a student of the church whether devotees should use the technologies of the modern world, such as cellphones.
Priests and nuns watch internet porn, Pope Francis admitted while speaking with seminarians in Rome on Monday.
Pope Francis said internet porn was a ‘vice’ shared between members of the church.
‘It is a vice that many people have, many laymen, many laywomen, and also priests and nuns,’ said the 85-year-old Pope.
‘The Devil gets in that way. And I’m not just talking about criminal pornography like that involving the abuse of children, that is already degeneration. But pornography that is a little “normal”‘, he continued.
He cautioned priests and nuns, saying: ‘Dear brothers, be careful about this.’
The Pope made the remarks on Monday, according to ANSA.
Catholic priests and nuns are forbidden from watching pornography, with the Catechism defining sexual imagery as an ‘offence against chastity’ under article 2354.
In 2020, Pope Francis’ Instagram account appeared to ‘like’ a racy photo of a Brazilian bikini model dressed in stockings and suspenders.
