[quote] Warreni, Thanks for the vote. I agree mileage may very for others. Although my design is my creation based on the movies, original design and fan art couldnot compete fairly. How can there be just one skinner of the year when you have so many categories that deal with specific tastes and style not to mention sub-categories such as movies, sports, computers ect.. I think it should be SkinnerS of the Year. But if i misunderstood the voting rules, never mind <img id="Im

[size="3"][font="times new roman,times,serif"] No, I'm not a parent, but if that's what you believe that parenting is, I'm afraid that's just your opinion. My parents didn't attempt to indoctrinate me into a particular religious belief system and my parents allowed me the opportunity to grow and mature and explore for myself many different religious and philosophical traditions, and I would afford my own children the same opportunity. Sorry, but your way is not the o

[size="3"][font="times new roman,times,serif"] Gordon, You allude to some power required to censor work. I would argue that the Catholic Church has (or claims) power over its adherents across the world and this constitutes (if correct) a significant amount of power.

Reply to The Golden Compass in Current Events JoeUser Forums

[size="3"][font="times new roman,times,serif"] Gideon, I disagree with your definition of censorship. Merriam-Webster defines it as "the institution, system, or practice of censoring" and censor the transitive verb as " to examine in order to suppress or delete anything considered objectionable." Nowhere in these definitions is there an implicit or explicit mention of a governmental authority. Censorship by religious authorities is in fact the question here. Recall the
