I certainly agree that >good judgement with free will is the best way to go. Well, you might be able to forget about it. Mr Templeton (If he knows what's good for him) had better preapprove those jokes with ME, so I can tell him which jokes, would offend MY brand of Christianity. My people don't approve of any postings relating to SEX, DRUGS, ROCK MUSIC, JUDAISM, ISLAM, CATHOLISM, DEVIL worship or other satanistic practices. This stuff is just morally offensive, and as Nancy Gould said (a bit of a paraphrase here), "If it offends someone why post at all?" A member of our group is preparing a MORALITY TEST for all the USENET moderators (and potential moderators) to take to see if they are fit for the job. Mr Richmond is right. The moderators need some guidance and my group is here to help. Rev. Bob
