Religion and Forum Continuity Do Not Mix

I want to splash my 2 cents around.

Censorship is tricky.  I don't like it.  Aside from personal attacks on people, I really don't think there should be censorship.  If I don't want to read anything, I don't have to.

Bewbs I like in my personal life but given I am on here a lot at work, pics of them can be problematic - which is why I have asked for that kind of thing not to be posted.  Yes I can ignore them but it is a bit more difficult for someone else walking past me to ignore bewbs when they flash up on my screen unexpectedly.

So we have come around full circle, back to Tony's original post.  Post your music, your music is very personal, but no Proselytism is wanted here.  Everybody is entitled to their opinion, as long as it is not a direct personal attack on anyone or any group.  Everybody needs to respect each others personal views and beliefs. No Proselytism.  But when it comes to music, all types are encouraged and welcome, experiments, sound-scapes, pop, rock, gospel, hymns, chanting, Rajas, tibetan singing bowls, music made up entirely from vegetables, all manner of animal noises.  Hell, Osckilo could make up a sound collage of the sound made from two boobs rubbing together, all different types, it could be an interesting experiment, titty musique concrète if you will, now that I would like to hear.  Just no Proselytism, that is what Tony was trying to say way back at the beginning, and I agree, this site has no room for Proselytism, period.  This argument is not about censership, it is about the dangers and evil that is Proselytism.  Now then, on to that titty musique concrète Tharek, I am dying to hear it.



From Google: "Proselytizing is the act of attempting to convert people to another opinion and, particularly, another religion. The word proselytize is derived ultimately from the Greek language prefix 'πρός' (toward) and the verb 'έρχομαι' (I come). Historically in the Koine Greek Septuagint and New Testament, the word proselyte denoted a gentile who was considering conversion to Judaism. Though the word proselytism originally referred to Early Christianity (and earlier Godfearers), it is also used to refer to other religions' attempts to convert people to their beliefs or even any attempt to convert people to another point of view, religious or not. Today, the connotations of proselytizing are often negative and the word is commonly used to describe attempts to force people to convert."

Dave, Wilco was here (in Vancouver) for an free Olympic event...pissed me off as the park was at capacity way before thy came on, hence I didn't see them this time around. I've seen them a few times and Jeff Tweedy solo at the Commodore Ballroom...priceless.

You make a valid point. It could also be a problem at home if there are young children around (or jealous wives). Although, I think all of the boob pictures posted have been in good taste. I wouldn't allow any full nudity or porn.

Wouldn't the banning of boob pictures be censorship too? And wouldn't other types of images also be a problem if you get caught viewing them at work? I mean, if your boss walks by while you're drooling over guitar porn or a picture of the latest multitrack recorder, isn't he/she going to ask you why you're not working instead? So, instead of banning boob pictures, I'd suggest disabling the loading of images in your web browser while at work. It's easy to do. For example, in Firefox, select the Content tab in Preferences and uncheck "Load images automatically". Other browsers will have a similar option.

Or maybe Pedro can find a way to create an option in each member's profile to disable images within messages. That way, all of the icons, banners, and other graphics would still work (which they won't if you disable the automatic loading of images in your browser) but the user could choose whether he/she wants images within messages to be blocked.
