I must admit that I'm disappointed. I figured that I would take some hits, but for people to only scan a post before reaching for the lighter... Don't be such a condescending shit. We read your post clearly enough, thank you very much. Typical control-freak crap. If you want your little xtian kids to be namby-pamby'd on the net, start up your own business and offer them restricted access yourself, but don't try to tell the rest of us how to run our systems. It's the responsibility of the parents to restrict the children's access, not the net. I've no more against a Falwell-style BBS than I have against their loony TV channels, just don't force me to have to use one. By all means encourage proper upstanding xtian parents to fund a suitable system for their own children to use, but lay off the regulation bullshit. That was lies disaster for free speech everywhere. G PS There was a good article on the US xtian right-wing's attempts to infiltrate Republican politics in the Guardian, Mon July 25. They have a good quotation from Ralph Reed, the exec director of the Christian Coalition: "I want to be invisible, " (talking about their political manoeuvering), "I paint my face and travel at night. You don't know it's over until you're in a body bag. You don't know it's over until election night." Friends like you, and Schafly, we can do without, thank you Nathan.
