Pastor, Porn Star to Talk It Out
Don’t expect a shouting match… these guys can actually have a conversation
By: JONATHAN LLOYD NBC News
The subject of missionary positions is likely to come up in one form or another Wednesday night when adult movie star Ron Jeremy debates pastor Craig Gross.
Jeremy is one of the adult entertainment industry’s most recognizable figures with one of its most recognizable physiques. Gross is the founder of Triple X Church, Strip Church and Fireproof Ministries.
Although a porn star-pastor debate might not sound like the stuff of Lincoln-Douglas, the two have produced lively and insightful discussions in the past. Don’t expect a lot of emphatic finger wagging and podium pounding — they genuinely get along.
Here’s a post from Gross after their September 2006 debate at James Madison University.
“After the debate, Ron and I headed to,” Gross wrote.
That was after Gross picked up Jeremy in a rental car and trekked through a “ton of fog.”
“The debate lasted 2 plus hours,” Gross wrote. “Some great questions. I even spoke with a girl afterwards who said her whole view of porn was changed after hearing the debate.”
So neither participant takes himself too seriously. Watch these two reasonable men Wednesday night when they participate in “The Great Porn Debate” at Bovard Auditorium on the USC campus.
The event is free. It’s first come, first seated.
It’s also part of a ClickCast on Facebook. That means you can submit your questions about salvation, stimulation or the publicly funded healthcare option.
Let’s take a look at tonight’s debate participants:
- Gross has 11,000 followers on Twitter. Jeremy has appeared in more than 1,000 adult films
- Gross authored a book titled, “Jesus Loves You, This I Know.” Jeremy also wrote a book — “The Hardest (Working) Man in Showbiz.”
- Jeremy was featured on “Bunny Ranch: Vol. 1.” Gross employs Rex the Rabbit to “help you navigate the issues of sex, porn and everything in between.”
Gross also has Pete the Porn Puppet to spread the word.

Due to new FTC regulations regarding bloggers, I must disclose that at no time has Ron Jeremy, Facebook or that crazy church fucker given me any money to whatever. However that being said, the crazy church fucker should give me money just for having to look at that picture of his face. No seriously. Have you seen that hair? WTF is wrong with him? How does he expect people to take him serious with that fucking hair? GET A FUCKING COMB ALREADY!
