Church Burns Porn Found At Drive-In
“Members of a Jacksonville church gathered to burn at least 100 reels of X-rated movies from the ’70s- and ’80s that were discovered recently when the church bought Jacksonville last drive-in theater. The 300-member congregation of Christ Church Anglican held a special service Sunday afternoon, which included a ceremonial burning and a ‘holy hose-down’ with water from a Jacksonville Fire and Rescue truck blessed by the priest. Christ Church purchased the 13-acre Playtime Drive-In for $1.4 million after the 60-year-old theater closed in May. The church closed on the deal a few weeks ago and discovered the porn stash when they began cleaning up. The Rev. Mark Eldredge said the church plans to show family movies to the public after some repairs are done.” — News4Jax.com (US)
It’s sad to think of all that x-rated celluloid going up in flames. There are so many things that could have been done with it — donate it to the Museum of Sex, digitize it and start a retro porn site, auction it to collectors of rare porn films (they exist). There may well have been thousands of dollars — even tens of thousands of dollars — of rare booty in that bonfire. Why waste it?
Of course, as the saying goes, “one man’s poison, signior, is another’s meat or drink.” And vice versa. The monetary value of old film stock may mean less to a religious institution than the sacrificial value of seeing it going up in smoke. But how come nobody cares when religious folk burn up pornography? If pornographers were to burn 100 bibles in an equally public display of contempt, there would no doubt be an uproar.
These are the same breakaway asswipes that have aligned themselves with the genocidal African churches rather than accept the homosexual Bishop that another diocese chose for itself. Fanatics of the worst stripe, book burning is right up their alley.
Welcome to the real world of fundamentalism at work. At least it wasn’t Harry Potter this time.
Awww retro porn is some of the best :( I hope someone some where still has copies.
I’d rather they’d burn Harry Potter: there’s more than enough copies of him floating around. Golden era porn is far more rare and precious.
it’s sad to think of all that fantastic history going up in smoke, in a hundred years people will liken this ti the burning of the libraries of Alexandria, i mean really porn is one of the ways to see how technology and social mores have progressed through history.
it was the porn industry that first used the net for business, the first to go from film to VHS, to digital than HD.
the movie industry making block busters followed after.
i love retro porn, it’s gritty and classy ( the ones made in the 30’s & 40’s).
my first porn was butts motel, i was 8, it was hidden in a snow white cover, so when i put it on i was very suprised, i didn’t understand it, but it did explain what mummy & daddy did behind closed doors.
the lighting was bad, the hair was permed, the cocks were uncut,small and hairy.
the bush’s were untamed,untrimed, not waxed or shaved, now i think about it that was pretty funny.
i prefer to see hot girls and buff nice hung guys with as little hair as possible.
Yes, I also would like to see as little hair as possible.
If they were true Christians they should have sold off the porn and used the money they got to give to charity and actually help people.
So sad that these hypocrites destroyed all that porn (I would have liked to see it…) that could have gone to something positive rather than up in flames.
i should send them a movey of me jugg fucking mom in the confetional at church mother drunk chain smoking wearing black leather high heels
