information.
I agree with access to information - and further concede that shining
light on dark concepts helps to destroy them. I agree also with
pro-freedom concepts, though I must ask that you concede my point that
being "dogmatic" is not as good as being intelligent. And that's not
to mention that "dogmatists" will often do more damage to their cause
than help.
Those who support censorship are obviously not going
to be our sources
of funding.
Well we did turn down that NAMBLA funding for *some reason - was it
because they were not "pro-freedom?"
