Subject Author Date Response to your comments Sacred Poontang 22:01:38 11/19/02 Tue You didn't respond to the privacy and public display related part of my comments -- chadi, 22:39:38 11/19/02 Tue Privacy is a matter of individual choice. Individuals consenting to engage in sexual acts in public situations have chosen to forego their right to privacy. -- Sacred Poontang, 23:18:15 11/19/02 Tue It depends on which "public" you're talking about. You do not have the right to insult someone by email. Some people consider pornography as an insult, and most pornographers send pornographic and obscene spams to their emails. (this is just one mere example). (NT) -- chadi, 23:34:22 11/19/02 Tue The definition of freedom is that your rights end where your neighbor's began. Your neighbor has a right to positively express his/her sexuality. They do not, however, have the right to coerce you into participating, or to verbally abuse you. (NT) -- Sacred Poontang, 23:55:30 11/19/02 Tue What makes spam annoying is not the content, but the lack of choice you had in receiving it. It has nothing to do with pornography, anymore than it has to do with debt consolidation or Viagra. -- Sacred Poontang, 01:53:00 11/20/02 Wed Buddhism and puritanism -- Glenda Yenta, 22:41:27 11/19/02 Tue And do you think pornography is "something in moderation" ???? -- chadi, 23:13:09 11/19/02 Tue If you reread my post, you will see I was NOT stating my opinion. Rather, I was explaining that Buddhism and pornography are not inconsistent. I was giving the Buddhist point of view. As I am NOT a Buddhist myself, I do not see how this would be taken to reflect my viewpoint. -- Glenda Yenta, 23:20:18 11/19/02 Tue who said you're a buddhist? (NT) -- chadi, 23:38:23 11/19/02 Tue You asked if I thought pornography was moderation in reply to my post on Buddhism. No, I do not think it is moderation-but I am saying Buddhism believes in moderation and it does not have the same sexual taboos as Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. -- Glenda Yenta, 23:48:12 11/19/02 Tue So much for unbiased moderators... -- Sacred Poontang, 23:48:31 11/19/02 Tue
