Now you're asking follow up questions. This is a discussion of everyone's opinion. Do you think it's harmful, yes or no?
Wrong.  This is an exploration of your opinion, not everyone's opinion.
Plenty of opinions are involved. Do you think watching child porn is harmful?
Let's finish exploring your opinion before we move on to mine or anybody else's.  I want you to stay focused and not get distracted.

Please explain how watching child porn is harmful?  Who is getting hurt by the act of watching?

Why do you believe that it's not harmless?  Who is getting harmed by watching?
Ok, I agree with you, merely watching something on a TV, regardless of what it is, is completely harmless.

If you walk into your neighbor's house and his TV is playing child porn, you watching it harms no one. In the same way that the police watch the porn when collecting evidence.

What's your point?
So you go from this post at 11:19am, in which you say that watching child porn is "completely harmless", to a post at 1:29pm in which you say watching child porn is "harmful".

You're just all over the place today, aren't you?

Please explain how watching child porn is harmful?  Who is getting hurt by the act of watching?
I'm more than happy to clarify once you answer whether or not you think watching child porn is harmful.
For the umpteenth time . . . when the topic of discussion is YOUR beliefs and opinions, my opinion is irrelevant.

Please explain how watching child porn is harmful?  Who is getting hurt by the act of watching?
Hypothetically, if someones child was subject to child porn, wouldn't the parents and relatives and family friends of said child be hurt knowing that many people are watching?

Make your point.
Analysis FAIL on your part.

How would you know that somebody is watching at any point in time?  I highly doubt the viewer is calling mom and dad on the phone and telling them "Hey, I'm watching your kid's video".
You know people have watched or are watching.  This is one of those people. 
The "harm" the parents are feeling is knowing that it's out there.  The fact that somebody may be anonymously watching at any point in time does not make it incrementally worse.

Is Person X predisposed to molest children?    If so, I think I'll pass whether he's watching CP or not.

All you know is that he voluntarily picked up child porn from the trash and watched it.  Would you rather have him just watched this before he watched your children, or would you rather he didn't notice it in the trash?

You said that everything we do has an effect on society.  What effect does watching child porn have on it?

What if he picked up a discarded CD in the trash marked "porn" and after viewing it for 12 seconds he says "HOLY ****!!!  THIS IS CHILD PORN!!!" then destroys it?

Is he somehow a different person than BEFORE he viewed it?

The harm is that it's being watched.  Not that it's "out there."

No, I'm assuming tec means in his very narrow scenario that he knows it's child porn when he picks it up.

And ****, if I found child porn in the trash, I'd turn it into police.  Maybe watching the child porn rather than turn it in is similar to watching a crime take place and not reporting it to police.

I think I disagree with your premise.   The harm is that it's being produced and purchased.

While I think someone who enjoys watching it is disturbed, he's not producing it or creating a demand for production by purchasing it. 

Do you disagree?  If so, why?

How do you know it's being watched?
