Hotels urged to drop porn movies
Two leading academics in the United States – Dr. Robert George of Princeton University and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf of Zaytuna College – have released a joint letter to the CEOs of the top five American hotel chains urging them to stop selling pornographic movies in their hotels.
In it, they warn of pornography’s grave social consequences, including addiction, exploitation, and loss of self-worth.
The letter does not threaten protests or boycotts, but appeals to the individual consciences of the major hotel CEOs. The letter says in part:
"We write to ask you to stop offering pornographic movies in your company’s hotels. We make no proposal here to limit your legal freedom, nor do we threaten protests, boycotts, or anything of the sort.
"We simply ask you to do what is right as a matter of conscience.
"We are, respectively, a Christian and a Muslim, but we appeal to you not on the basis of truths revealed in our scriptures but on the basis of a commitment that should be shared by all people of reason and goodwill: a commitment to human dignity and the common good."
