My thanks to all of you who are here. I hope you will come to start and join interesting discussions of philosophy. All philosophical views are accepted, although they will most probably be attacked in the nicest manner possible. This forum is especially protected against flaming, that is, uness you can come up with a good enough reason for it not to be censored ;) . Otherwise, feel free to say whatever you want.

Concerning the censorship, I think your point is obvious, but I'll play along anyway. ;) :D

*ahem*...

I apologize for being contrary Geist, but I object to censorship on both philosophical and moral grounds. The reasons why censorship is a bad idea are both numerous and controversial, and, people being who they can't help but be, such a discussion is itself likely to be censored. It seems to me that a discussion of this subject, within a "moderated" forum, is therefore pointless. In my opinion, moderation is wise regarding matters of practicality, yet in relation to creative human endeavors of any sort, such is a contrivance with adverse affect, limiting something which dissolves within the imposition of control.

heheh :ph43r:

Thank you, Wolf, for your input. But I would really only use censoring in a practical manner, not as a bias, so I think we agree. :)
