Porn and Pancakes

I saw this on Saturday Night Live and I thought it was a joke. Apparently, it's not. It's a church based men's club that discusses porn over a pancake breakfast. The group convenes to listen to guest speakers and discuss the negative effects of porn on society and the individual. Their website however is humorously ambiguous in its mission:

A morning filled with straight talk about porn and the issues surrounding porn. From the people who get it. XXXchurch pastors, porn industry insiders and people who have struggled without hope.

Struggled to find the good stuff? Try justabouteverythingyoucanimagine.com. Just so there's no confusion as to who is welcome:

The breakfast is open to men and boys in junior high on up.

Not to be confused with the ads for the male bathhouses. The website is quite succinct with it's frequently asked questions:
