And when you are out of power, your enemies will use their newly-found power to "ban pornography" to ban such things as the Bible and your political newsletter.

That's not an argument you're presenting. More like a paranoid vision.
For generations, it's been illegal to engage in lewd behavior in the public square.

Have such laws even come close to threatening people's right to pray or read the Bible in the public square?

That's not an rational argumentative question you're presenting, inquest.

Comparing lewd behavior in public with prayer/reading is more like a paranoid claiming that an apple is an orange.

Tell it to Poohbah. The point of my posts is to uncompare them.
