Is the time of Liberty at hand?

[WinterBorn]

Within a certain context, I can understand (though not necessarily agree with) the notion. Frankly children understand the concept of pain, at least at the fundamentally primal level. Therefore they are more easily able to understand the idea that violence as portrayed in movies and other media is wrong. Porn on the other hand does not depict an experience with which children might be familiar. And the fact that the participants in porn generally enjoy the act they put on, means that it can give a greater distortion in reality than a violent movie might. Not saying there is realistic difference though.

I think what bothers me as much as anything is the idea that people who watch porn will be effected and will repeat what they see, and yet somehow seeing people get killed in violent, bloody ways will not have the same effect.

It is a subtle acceptance of violence and a rejection of physical love. Weird to me.

Not to mention the vile and absurd laws allowing graphic war videos while condemning porn. It's fine to show a child with his/her arms blown off but God help any TV news program that shows two adults making love.

Society is much sicker than most realize.

Sorry, but you don't get to decide what's decadent and what's not, Libtard.

 

[DamnYankee]

Indeed. One group would like to impose their religon; the other their version of charity. Both think their versions would improve the world for the betterment of 'all.' The problem is they all are blinded to their own hubris.

I've never tried to impose my religion on you, liar.

 

[WinterBorn]

Sorry, but you don't get to decide what's decadent and what's not, Libtard.

But you get to decide what gov't interference is ok and what is not?

Tell us all how much you love freedom and smaller gov't again?

 

[WinterBorn]

I've never tried to impose my religion on you, liar.

But you insist we base laws of religious based moral doctrines, and not logical freedoms based on not harming anyone? Nice double standard.

Banning porn is one of your social conservative principles. And so is maintaining a ban on gay marriages.

 

[DamnYankee]

STFU, stalker.

As I said society is much sicker than most realize.

I'm not most. I know what you liberals are trying to do, for a profit.

 

[WinterBorn]

STFU, stalker.

If you want to put me on ignore, feel free. Otherwise, debate the issues and leave the other shit behind. Ok?

 

[WinterBorn]

I'm not most. I know what you liberals are trying to do, for a profit.

And conservatives don't want to take away freedoms and do it for a profit?

Sorry, but you don't get to decide what's decadent and what's not, Libtard.

But you do? And where does that authority come from? Further, isn't 'decadence' part of freedom of speech? Or are social conservatives against that as well?

The authority comes for the worlds major religions: morality.

The authority comes for the worlds major religions: morality.

And our laws come from the people and their representatives, not from the world's major religions.

Sorry, but religion has no place in the government of America.

 

[DamnYankee]

Sorry, but religion has no place in the government of America.

Sorry, but America was founded on religion. We are the vast majority, loser.

 

[WinterBorn]

Sorry, but America was founded on religion. We are the vast majority, loser.

Sorry, but the majority does not rule here. That prevents mobs from taking over.

No, we were not founded as a theocracy. The founding fathers went to great lengths to make sure religion didn't rule this nation.

No, America was founded on freedom. And regardless of majority, the majority does not have the power to usurp the rights of the minority.

No, and no.

No, and no.

Weren't you just saying that you supported freedom? And if that's the case, your guns can be taken away from you, because gun owners are a minority.

But we gun owners have guns.
