the conservatives won't let people just rate "objectionable" material in order to keep it from them. They want it off the net/world whether or not it's rated.

In the course of channel surfing, I have once or twice come across the Christians ranting about pornography. They have both legitimate and illegimate complaints, but mainly they emphasize the legitimate complaint. PICS addresses this legitimate complaint.

I've never heard a fundamentalist (there are other Christians than fundamentalists, BTW) ranting about how they can be exposed to pornography; it's always others they claim to be upset about. I was raised a Southern Baptist, so I suspect I'm familiar with fundys. -Allen
