Essay: "The Never Ending Fight Vs. Censorship", Part 10

Essay: "The Never Ending Fight Vs. Censorship", Part 10 of 10

[Cont'd from Part 9]

You could also write letters to newspapers, movie studios, the music industry, the FCC, Congress, etc., letting them know in no uncertain terms that they best not support censorship in any way, shape, or form, or risk losing their jobs or your business or approval.
Judging by their actions, the claim by self-appointed moralists that they are "morally superior" to just about everyone else is a total crock. For instance, many Bible-thumping tv evangelists have been found to engage in all kinds of debauch behavior, as well as being shameless scammers and absolutely devoid of sincerity.
Back in the day, Savings and Loan slimeball William Keating, who screwed the American taxpayers out of two billion dollars (an obscene amount), was also an anti-porn crusader. During the sixties, the late 'morally superior' senator Jesse Helms was a tv commentator denouncing the Civil Rights movement. As a Senator, he similarly supported South Africa's past system of Apartheid. And this guy wanted to decide what was moral for the rest of us? Many tv evangelists live the high life by scamming and lying to their naive and gullible followers. At the same time, they claim to be epitomes of morality.
Lastly, for anyone who would prefer to be treated like a child; and would like the government, the Church, or small-time moralists or morality groups to impose censorship or morality on non-believers, I have just one more thing to say: Long-Live Decadence, Debauchery, Vice, and Voyeurism!
