That's a slippery slope, any number of people can be offended by any number of things. Try to please them all and you'll find the USC severely limiting in its selection.
Also, aside from the name, there is nothing pornographic about Pornview, it's simply an image viewer.

And really its right that we should stick to the topic at hand. Its easy to get caught up in discussions like this but if I were to bring some insight to the table, i'd say that the last email was right about those concepts being religious traditions and not the teachings of christianity, the whole reason we should seek to prevent things like pornview from being featured items is the same reason we don't let our 8 year olds, at least most of us don't, see an R rated movie... it has nothing to do with "censorship" or being a nanny over free adults, its just about being appropriate for all audiences (rated G as it were).
