I am also an atheist. I was brought up in a Calvinist society (Afrikaner). For a long time I thought the same thing about porn. But I think it has much more to do with the strict upbringing that made everything around sex weird. You state that "porn may be a valueless, happiness destroying exploitation of the way the human brain works". What are your reasons for saying this? Is it just your personal aversion? Or do you think it holds in general (in which case you'd at least have to provide some evidence).
