I have to say that is wonderful dissection of the issue. It is quite the conundrum that we on the right are in. You are right as a person who does find porn personally detestable, I would love to see it removed from our society (like liberalism). But I am torn because I do not think the government is the proper avenue to take for its removal. I understand that moral fiber is important and fundamental element to a functioning society, but what do you do when a society chooses to behave accordingly? Do you set the government up as a nanny state? Or do you try to use the social institutions (the church) to try to change hearts and minds. It is an issue that does not have an easy solution, hence the strong and passionate debate in this forum.

I worry more that we are on a collision course in the same way the North and south were in the 1850's.
And we all know what settled those arguements....
To hear today's Lib's actually speak of secession...!?
The Democrats of the south tried that too in the 1860's...
then again we know what settled that arguement.
Just shows that Democrats never change...even in a 140 odd years!
