thanks for the rep. i think I'm gonna need it in that thread + the gay one. :D

IE - Google FF - Google Opera - Google Safari - Google Chrome - Google's startup page for most-visited sites I'm a Google guy! :D

Nick here! :) Subjects in the sig.

Quite possibly. And it is probably criminal, but then again there's no official bill of rights.

Uh-huh. Firefox almost never fails. :) I don't use computer-based email like Outlook, but does anyone know if Thunderbird rips Outlook like Firefox rips Internet Explorer? :tongue:

Well that's an opinion, I admit. And yes, I agree that child pornography is harder to block as it's done differently than 'normal' websites. Hence another reason for the filter's fail already.

The file I'm trying to upload as an avatar is roughtly 80x70 px and about 3k. It's not working. :(

The filter aims to block child pornography sites, and they'll sneak in other pornography sites there I'm sure. Yep, pornography is disgusting, but there are better ways of dealing with it.

Apparantly some Christian sites and other religious sites are on the blacklist. Now whatever happened to freedom of expression in a democracy? Oh wait, I forgot, Australia doesn't have an official bill of rights. Although I do believe there are some rights specified in the constitution, but...

I agree with you there. But it would be a shame to see someone come to these forums (which are great btw) to get some education pointers, and to be scared off by the swearing. Just saying, but I'm happy to drop it.

Christian. Saved by faith alone, through grace alone, by Christ alone. :)

Speak for yourself. I can tolerate it, but others might not. But whatever.

Homosexuality is described as a sin in the Bible becasue God made man and woman to engage in the act of sex for the purposes of reproduction. That's the purpose of sex. And in His good grace, he made it pleasurable as well. :) In this fallen world, many bad things are considered 'natural'. --...

How about a crackdown on swearing? There's a lot on here and it can be offensive.

+1 If the government seriously thinks they can get away with this, especially since they're not consulting the public about it, then they've got another thing coming. If you don't want your kids seeing bad stuff on the net, that's the paretns' role, not the government. And it shouldn't be...

The Bible says everyone is forgiven by God if they repent, no matter what sin the have committed - that includes homosexuals. If one has homosexual tendencies, that may not necessairly be a sin, but acting on those is definately a sin. If someone is homosexual but is convicted by the Bible that...

Apologies if there is an earlier thread on this. Mods, merge the threads if you feel appropriate. --- What are people's thoughts on the Australian government trying to censor the internet?

+1. People who say God hates fags and that the Bible calls for the supression of women have obviously never read it and are ignorant of what they are criticisng. People who discuss texts like the Bible ought to get to know it and what it actually means before they criticise it.

I completely agree. Society needs to take more of a genuine interest in politics. Until they do, this society will not improve and the government + large firms will continue pulling the wool over our eyes and making choices for themselves and not the general community. They are largely relying...

*thumbs up* Yeah, I agree. None of them up in QLD are gonna remember what actually happened, except that they'll probably have AIDS and a massave hangover. Yeah - what a great celebration! Chillin on the coast with mates FTW! :)
