Duke,
So news reports on national television, interviewing
people "seeing" the Virgin Mary in a rust stain,
that is OK. But if I make reference to it, that is
not OK, blaspheme ? A little touch of hipocracy.
Censorship, the Americam way. Do you understand
sarcasm? Put me on auto ignore.
Non constructive for you, may be constructive
for anothers. do you speak for all, or is this
just your opinion? request that the moderator ban
me. But don't ban the indicator salesmen, the
rediculous prognosticators and their pay sites.
freedom of expression comes in many forms.
restriction of expression, wasn't that tried
in a few third world countries, with less than
stellar results?
take care......
