Brother Adam Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Here's a question. Someone mentioned yesterday that they bought Simpson's beermugs at Spencer's gifts. If anyone isn't aware, Spencer's has basically turned into a sex shop in the mall. Is it moral to shop at companies that peddle things like porn, or even contraceptives (which would make most grocery stores and all pharmacies out of the question)? What I'm really looking for is what the Church has to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photosynthesis Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 it's really hard to find stores that DON'T sell condoms... but if Catholics were to boycott all stores then it might make quite an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thy Geekdom Come Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Spencers sold at least soft-core porn the last time I went in, and that was years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cow of Shame Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Yeah, they definitely flirt with soft porn. If you can't shop at places that sell smut, you'd be hard pressed to buy items at reasonable prices. You certainly couldn't shop Amazon.... As for what the church says...no clue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmom Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I remember in high school being under the impression that Spencers sold that stuff. But having never dared go in... I couldn't say for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I haven't been in Spencers for years. Not that I wouldn't go in there now, but it just doesn't hold all that much appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
