It was started by Rev. Jerry Falwell, and it fights for >decency and respect for all, to show the real meaning of freedom, and >against those who twist "freedom of speech" and "freedom of religion" >into saturation by their views and censorship of opposing views. If there was ever a worse perversion of the truth since the days of Dr. Goebbels, it doesn't readily come to mind. The "Moral Majority" has learned its lesson well from the brown-shirted masters, and its followers beat the same unthinking drum as they march us all to their inferno. Germany, too, had complete freedom of speech, so long as the speech praised Hitler. They had freedom of religion, so long as it was not Jewish or anything else subhuman. Proper Christian prayers for the Fatherland were quite acceptable, thank you. Is that what "freedom of speech" and "freedom of religion" are to mean once more? -- Martin Taylor {allegra,linus,ihnp4,uw-beaver,floyd,ubc-vision}!utzoo!dciem!mmt
