>> This isn't "freedom" you're demanding--this is "license".
License, freedom, whatever you choose to call it doesn't matter. The
fact still remains that I, as an adult living in the greatest country
the face of the Earth, have a right to read, view, and listen to
whatever I want. When and if that right ever goes away (and I hope to
God it never does), America will cease to be great and we might as
well live under the rule of the Taliban.

No one is (at least I'm not) proposing to deny you that right. I
believe that parents should have the right to TOTALLY control (no
matter what Hillary Clinton says) what their minor children read,
view, and listen to. This ncludes the right to home schooling or
whatever. However, that right need not interfere with the rights of
adults. If you don't like what Hollywood is dishing out today, then
don't let your kids attend movies or rent/buy videos and don't
subscribe to HBO, Showtime, or Cinemax. If you don't like what's on
MTV, then don't subscribe to basic cable either. Heck, remove all TV's
and radios from your house if you wish. It's your right and it's not
child abuse.

I'm not going to be drawn into an argument with your racial and
anti-semetic remarks, but I WILL agree with you that exposure to
feminism, liberalism, and humanism is indeed far more damaging to
children than exposure to nudity.

I agree 100%. By the way, where can I see Britney Spears' buns?

Other than that, the New York Times is a pretty good newspaper, huh?

See my comments above.

I don't think it has anything to do with slavery and if it does, it
shouldn't.

I hope that children DO read the Holy Bible as much as possible. Then
perhaps they won't turn out to be anti-semetic, racist
conspiracy-theorists.
