   Let's cut to the chase: alt.sex.bestiality is an indefensible
   application of public funds. It's an indefensible thing to bring
   into the public schools. It's equally unnacceptable to allow the
   government to serve as censor.

I do NOT wish to be quoted.

It's not clear to me if these actions are indefensible or not.  The
ruckus over these is due to the fact that some Americans are very hung
up over sex.

How do you feel about the talk.religion.* or soc.religion.*
newsgroups?  Using public funds to distribute them is a clear
violation of the US Constitution's required separation of church and
state.  Or is it?
