Shlomo Eliahu, chief rabbi in the northern Israeli town of Safed, was approached by Orthodox Jews worried about the lure of Internet sex sites. In response, he composed a prayer to help devout Jews overcome guilt after visiting porn web sites. Here's some of the prayer:
"Please God, help me cleanse the computer of viruses and evil photographs which disturb and ruin my work..., so that I shall be able to cleanse myself (of sin) . . ."The Rabbi recommends that the prayer be recited when logging on to porn sites either intentionally or by mistake.
Um . . . does this make it okay to look at porn? Or does it just get rid of guilt?
