I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that I'm not about to express the majority view, I hope not, but I suspect what I say is not the majority view either. There was a time not long ago when there were things not said in the presence of ladies or children, both which are certainly on the Internet. I'd argue that these things shouldn't be said at all, but at least those who desired to do so had the cultural restraint to keep it in whatever man-circles they hung around in. Now we bow down to the idol of free speech and think there should be no restraint whatsoever, and we are a lesser people because of it. That's my personal, probably very minority, view anyways. My own rule is to not write on ROFF anything I wouldn't want my (wife, children, mother, boss, pastor, etc.) to read. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night. Jon. |
