    Hmmm, wonder what the outcome be...

    I followed the news about the University student press article/survey.. It's just retarded to ban it and render it indecent. I mean, we are all grown adult by the time we go to university...

    Anyways, there are ALWAYS retards... idiocy sees no end.

    And Bible being banned? I guess it's not going to happen because believers will have their bag of excuses...

    Yes, I heard about the U-Gate in HK ... The U is over reacting, by making it public to the press.
    If the Bible is being rated then the Koran must be rated as well ...

    Oh, that would be a step closer to a world without books and texts! Information and knowledge are forbidden! -mellow

    @Mav: Then all hell breaks loose because the religion groups are not going to just sit on their hands and watch it happen.

    @taxloss: we are just edging towards Faranheit 451 aren't we???

    Looks like it Hiake, esp. if more countries move on with ridiculous censorships.

    Or, could the 'U- Gate' in HK be a test case that actually wants to point out some idiotic rules?

    I don't think so... the outrage sounded real enough to me...

    But on the other hand, I think it's fair game that the Bible is "investigated" since if other printed material is being "investigated" why does the Bible hold special privilege??? Just because it's a religious text doesn't mean it's free from such scrutiny...

    Don't think the Muslims will be so willing to let their Qur'an be 'investigated' as well.

    Well, it's not like the religious groups will be sitting on their hands and watch it happen... They will put up a fight for sure...

    Just hope this won't be the cause of WWIII :p
     
  19. hiake

    hiake Vardøgr of da E.Twin

    Well we can surely hope...

    But it's possible, though unlikely (considering there are SO many other things "worth fighting for") and that such "holy wars" would more likely be regional than world wide (in sync)
