Dilbert: "I've identified the brain chemical that controls happiness. And
I found the exact mix of fruit and vegetable juices that stimulate its
production. Do you realize what this means?"
Dogbert: "Yeah. Fruits and vegetables will be banned by the government."
FBI Guy #1: "We're the government. We came to confiscate your so-called
'Happiness Drug'."
Dilbert: "It's not a drug! It's just a mixture of fruits and vegetables
that makes you feel happy! You can't outlaw good nutrition!"
FBI Guy #2: "Hmm...I guess that wouldn't make sense, would it?"
FBI Guy #1: "Ignore him. He's a new guy. Erase all the formulas for
making your 'Happiness Potion' and we won't jail you."
Dilbert: "Okay, Okay..."
FBI Guy #1: "You citizens only have the right to PURSUE happiness -
you're not actually allowed to BE happy."

Subject: Challange- the 'fruits' of censorship
Below is a posting to challenge complaining about my signature file, and my reply.
Once people start censoring objectionable speech the next step is always objectionable ideas.

The other day upon the stair,
I met a man that wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today,
I wish I wish he'd go away.
"There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of
donkeys, and whose emission was like that of horses." -Ezekial 23:20
(I borrowed this from Yoel, it has become my favorite Bible verse)

What, pray tell is crude about that poem? Know you are going to censor us on our signature file? I challenge you to find one (1) thing crude about that poem.
"There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of
donkeys, and whose emission was like that of horses." -Ezekial 23:20
Now, this could be considered to be crude, but it is a Bible quote, are you saying that Bible quotes are inappropriate to a Bible discussion list?

This is the American sign language symbol for I love you, are expressions of love inappropriate for this list?

This is my own opinion about the Christian religion. Is it ok for a Christian to put "In His service" or some such thing but not for an atheist to express his non believe?
