Go up one level in this thread
In fact, this reminds me very much of the >general feelings on safe sex education. Many conservatives think that discussing >and instructing on safe sex will somehow promote teen sex, and as a consequence >teen pregnancies and disease. So they would prefer a gag order. I think the >opposite and promote education as the best weapon. I can never see silence and >ignorance as the best strategy. This is much the same. no its not at all i have to tell you your analogies are completely misguided you make a leaping anaology...allowing rascist posts to go undeleted...to ..lack of sex education... then you go on to debate this point..with yourself(i might add) i am no right wing conservative i can assure you i am against allowing rascist and hateful posts to remain on a board undeleted and in many cases not even commented on many times i saw this on the CTF.. you think the posting of hate,exclusion and rascism is somehow a good thing.. i do not.. lets leave it at this i am fairly certain you and i will never see eye to eye on this Steve You can hardly present >arguments or discussion if you close up shop on all dialogue. Will there be a >long line of converts? Hardly, but people do discuss and have the opportunity to >learn. > >In genuine humility, I have. This entire series of threads on the subject has >really helped open my eyes further on the value of dialogue and freedom of >speech, even though I thought I understood these concepts well.
