Thanks for that thought Milton.

I consider myself to be religious.  My religion, like many, does not fit 
with the dogma of organized religion.  I am therefore extremely 
sensitive to censorship and dogma.  I also do not consider myself to be 
perfect, but seek truth where I can find it.  Censorship and dogmatic 
mandate limit my spiritual growth.  I am sensitive to limiting my 
experience and understanding.  I do not wish to limit anyone from 
finding truth.  I wish to hear their thoughts and test them myself to 
find if they be of man or God.  I find my method works with non 
religious life as well.  I try as I can, not to be a bigot.

The Saudis should be publicly ridiculed for their absurd and restrictive ideas; they seem to think that because they have dirty minds they have the right to impute their own wild associations to the rest of us. For example, they objected to Johnson & Johnson's .baby because "there is a risk that this string is used in the same way as .XXX to host pornographic websites."
