I dug this up after thinking about the Patricia de Lille debacle. The censorship issue was a big thing in blogland not too long ago. This was first posted on my blog here in February
Censorship
I found this, It scares me...I BELIEVE IN CENSORSHIP!!!!
AND CONSERVATISM!!
AND THE DEATH PENALTY!!
AND MORAL VALUES AND PRINCIPLES!!
AND I AM A CHRISTIAN BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT I MUST STEP ASIDE FOR ATHEISTS, LIBERALS AND NEW AGED INDIVIDUALS!!
MY BELIEVES ARE MY BELIEVES AND I WILL CARRY THEM WITH PRIDE AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM!!
I AM WHAT I AM AND I AM PROUD OF THAT:
I WILL FIGHT FOR MY RIGHTS AND I WILL NOT LET ANY MORALLY CORRUPT INDIVIDUAL STAND IN MY WAY!!
Define Morally Corrupt. I fear for the nation, the world because those that make most noise win converts. It is my fear that we are being led back into the dark ages starting with the American "Moral regeneration" Creationist thet fervently believe that the world is only 6000 years old want to banish Science from our lives.
From my limited experience and reading I know that "fundamentalist" can be switched for terrorist without there being any major difference in meaning. These folks believe so much that they want to censor what you read for your own good, They want to control your thoughts, They want to lead you to heaven, nirvana, mecca or wherever. Resistance is futile.
It is time for the silent majority to become more vocal or ELSE the noisy MINIORITY will gain control. It is time to say enough. We don't need mind control, We don't need to be led to the slaughter. We are quite happy to find our own way.
I fear because the silent majority or wont not to vote because they don't believe it will make a difference. The silent majority don't have leaders and don't get lead. They make decisions for themselves. The biggest problem with the silent majority is that many are sheep in wolf's clothing. They may disagree but will not say so for fear of attracting unwanted attention, for fear of becoming targets, for fear of people like the one that wrote the stuff quoted above.
We don't need more laws to control our thoughts, We don't need to call for referendums on the death penalty. All we need is for our current laws to be enforced. We need to leave our constitution as it is. Making changes to the constitution by popular vote can be very dangerous.
I dont think the constitution says a TV in every jail, I don't think it says that prisoners may not be put to work. It does however prohibit us from feeding them to Lions. I know that the constitution allows us freedom of speech, freedom of association and the right to live without fear. Censoring these rights is against the constitution. It is against the will of the people.
Please feel free to copy this and send it to your 10 best friends. Get the word out that the silent majority needs to become more vocal and say no to referendums, Change of constitutions by popular vote is dangerous to the silent majority.
