ThroughTheFlame.org is non-profit web site created and maintained by a group of individuals who are concerned with at the alarming rate our culture is being "pornified" or turned into a "porn culture." Through the flame is dedicated to helping individuals whose lives have been affected by pornography, either first or second hand. Through the flame was founded in 2005 to help people struggling with pornography addiction.
Mission
Pornography addiction is a growing problem and is something that many people are embarrassed or ashamed to talk about. Because of this, few people get the support and help they need to overcome their addiction. Through the Flame was created from a desire to help people who have decided that they would like to get porn out of their lives and keep it that way. It was also created with the understanding that the majority of porn addiction sites on the internet have a religious inclination. While we feel that there is nothing wrong with this, we also felt that there are many more people out there who are not being reached because of this association. Our goal is to reach as many people as possible, and to help them live a full and happy life. The focus of this site is on healing, recovery and support. Through the Flame should be thought of as a place for restoration and support for those who are weary, and a safe haven and community for those working through their addiction.
While many may people may visit this site and immediately feel anger or resentment towards a "anti-porn" site, our intention is not to make anyone feel guilty, or assert that you are a bad person for looking at porn. Through the flame is based in the US, and we completely support and believe in the first amendment right for freedom of expression, and believe strongly that this is what makes America great. We also believe that as free citizens, we have the right to choose what we would like to consume. Unfortunately, in the current day and age, the culture makes it difficult to choose when it comes to pornography and its role in our lives. With only 3 percent of adult web sites requiring adult verification, many people, especially children, are exposed to things that change their lives forever, often without their choice. While some will inevitably point the finger and immediately label this site "prudish" or conservative, the reality is that there are many people who don't want porn in their lives, and by recognizing that they are not alone, draw strength from the community established here. We firmly believe that pornography can quickly spiral out of control for the user, and under closer examination, feel that avoiding it all together, while may be challenging, will be a rewarding and beneficial experience for you. If you do not agree, then we have no hard feelings and wish you well in your freedom to choose.
