Knock off the personal attacks
Thanks for not removing the thread just yet!!! It's been interesting. I agree with Joe on the basic premise (the main article), but I can see the sense in a few (although very few) of the arguments against it. How DOES one define "decency" or "obscenity" in a world that denies moral absolutes? Although I believe in and love the Bible, I don't think the laws of Christianity as found in the bible should be adopted as the laws of the nation. (That is for a future time.) But if you don't adopt the Bible's concepts of morality, how do you settle on definitions of "decency" and "obscenity"? Morality can be and must be legislated (morality, meaning behavior), but what is the Standard of what is moral?
(Hope this makes sense.)
