i find myself in a quandry about this, see what you think.

i am all for freedom of speech, thoughts, and faith. only if your actions that are based on those thoughts etc. do not hurt anyone.

now can the same be said for what we teach children?

example: the god hates fags group in the US, would be perfectly within their rights to think that, if they were not picketing dead soldiers funerals and harrasing the family of said fallen soldier.
however when i know they are teaching thier kids that it makes me very angry.

so what we deem acceptable for adults to think for themselves and what we think is ok to teach children, in my case at least, are two very different things.

i have been thinking about this all day and still have not come up with anything that makes sense.

at what age are kids allowed to make up their own minds about things?

you see why i am confused?

censorship goes against everything i believe in but then so does filling young and impressionable kids heads with things i find distasteful.

dogmatic religion.
homophobia.
racism.
sexism.

the list goes on.

take care all
