Yeah the three stooges actually think they can get rid of porn from the Internet, and that they even have the right to do so. The anti-porn laws they are vowing to enforce will soon be declared Unconstitutional.

If these numb nuts want to start enforcing laws that aren't being enforced, they can start and end with anti-torture laws and anti-trust laws. There's nothing more perverted than a too-big-too-fail financial institution.

    Hey Dan, do you think porn can effect children in a negative way?

    If a parent ran porn on their tv sets 7/24, instead of cartoons and PBS, would this in any way harm them?

    thank you cloud for your excellent example of the STRAWMAN LOGIC FALLACY!!

    It is getting hard to find someone so stupid today that they actually use this one, but here you are! thanks!

    you see, the question at hand, is whether or not to remove all porn from the internet, NOT whether or not young children should watch porn! most people are smart enough to understand the difference.

    As an analogy (you may need to look that word up) Lets say someone said "I believe it is ok for pilots to fly jumbo jets full of passangers and land them in our cities" would you respond with "do you think it ok for grade school aged kids to fly jumbo jets and land them in our cities?"

    Porn belongs in Congress, the White House, and airport bathrooms not in the privacy of adult homes.

    Can be done... the technology is out there and should be implementated.

    Any technology aimed at preventing the transmission of porn will be circumvented by other technology. People like porn. It ain't going away.

    "Technology" has not been able to prevent the internet from distributing illegal copies of rated G Disney movies.

    Yes, I am sure they will have much more success when it come to porn.

    All laws are an imposition of someone's morality.

    Incorrect. The basis of laws are rights not morality. You may not infringe upon someone else's rights including:
    1. Murder - the right to live.
    2. Theft - the right to property.
    3. Rape - the right to choose one's sexual partners.
    4. Vandalism - the right to property.
    5. Assault - the right to one's own body.
    6. Kidnapping - the right to freedom.
    7. False Imprisonment - the right to freedom.
    8. Perjury - the right to a fair trial.

    Every law should be based on protecting a right. If it is not, the law should not exist. Morality has nothing to do with this and neither does religion.

    In any case, the point is that laws should only be based on protecting rights not forcing one person's arbitrary religious moral code onto another.

    Again, that's just your opinion. Not everyone agrees with you. Why are you forcing YOUR arbitrary political philosophy onto another?

    Your constant assertions that everyone must agree with you seem just as "fundamentalistic" as the religious zealots you don't like. No one is a villain in his own eyes.

    For what it's worth, I agree with you about your list of "rights." Most people probably do, at least in the USA.

    Are you saying rights come from whatever the majority defines as rights? What if 51% decides it's their "right" to enslave the 49%? Or the 90% to the 10%? Attitudes and opinions are constantly changing.

    And, by the way, I'm not advocating Christianity. I have a thread that says "Christianity is self-refuting" in the Religion forum.

    I don't see how. Political jokes don't cause "religious people [to] be utterly terrified", at least not if they have any common sense.

    Of course it's not the joke that would cause religous people to be fearful of you. It's your attitude toward them, and you're belief that religion must be "eliminated" for the good of humanity.

    If your problem is politicians twisting religion for their own greedy ends, then say so specifically. Many (probably most?) religious people would agree with you on that point.

    Plenty of devout Muslims protested against the corrupt Mubarak in Egypt. Plenty of Iranians don't care for their government either.

    Saying all religion is bad won't accomplish anything, it will just make religious people angry and fearful. That's just human nature. Sure, it sucks, but that's how people are.

    I don't think that they understand that each vid or pic you download is not actually "removing" it from the internet.

    Quote from Asia Carrera, former pornographic actress.

    "I deliberately moved to St. George (Utah) with my husband so we could raise our kids in a conservative atmosphere, in a low-crime, family friendly state. I do appreciate that the laws are there, and will make it harder for my kids to get into trouble when they get older."

    And why should the government be allowed to restrict access to porn? Sounds like a violation of the 1st Amendment in both speech and religion.

    If a parent give their kids access to an unlimited amount of loaded firearms, would this in any way harm them?

    Does cloud still not understand what Ignore means? It means I don't see his trolly little posts.

    Apparently not.

    I have Cloud on ignore as well, and judging by what I see quoted by others that ignore is still well justified.

    It was never the purpose of many you started the internet to us it for porn distribution.

    Perhaps, but is is just the most profitable application of the internet. Why do you hate capitalism so much?

    The question was simple. If a child spent hours watching porn on tv or on a computer would it be harmful to that child's psyche?

    The answer is--who cares? Nobody is advocating forcing children to watch porn for hours on end.

    The answer is--who cares? Nobody is advocating forcing children to watch porn for hours on end.

    Spending hours a day on non-productive activities is a waste, but not necessarily harmful. There is no reason to believe that exposure to sexual activity in the form of porn or people having sex in any way, shape, or form harms a child's psyche. In tribal societies, children grow up around sexuality and their parents don't hide it. Yet the children are fine.

    Now placing a child in a church for an hour a week or in a faith school for hours on end does cause severe psychological damage, including but not limited to, hallucinations (aka religious experiences), delusions, the failure to grasp reality, violent tendencies, and worse of all, a predisposition to vote Republican.

    I guess you didn't figure out that part was facetious. One would think the joke would be obvious to someone with a sense of humor.

    I got that it was somewhat "tongue in cheek." But my point still stands.

    In other words, taking the rights away would be immoral.

    Depends on the right. Taking away the right to own slaves was not immoral.
