I think it's silly that I had to have headaches about what I put up on a page that's supposedly mine when they can come and delete it at any second if they don't like it or i it offends their delicate sensibilities. It seems to me that if a page is yours, you should be allowed to put whatever the heck you want on it, whether it offends people or not. I also don't see why, if you warn people, they still feel like they have a ight to complain about it. If they don't like it they don't have to look at it. However, it's just not right to tell people they can't put something up just because they don't agree with it. After all, last time I checked, there was a thing called the irst Amendment-- not that geocities, AOL, or any of those infamously censoring organizations would know much about that, apparently! |

My Email:silverkittie@hotmail.com Did you experience trouble with Puritans?: You bet! | Comments: My run-in with the online puritans of the world occured with the hosts of my now dead site, geocities. They deleted my entire site because of my story "Home Alone", and gave me all of an hour between the warning and actual deletion. I didn't even get a hance to remove my story and keep my site thanks to the uptight puritanistic prudes that run geocities! |

They impose their own irrational, stifling morés on other people, which is wrong, and contributes to a general mediocrity of society. Puritans also know no other viewpoints besid s their own. Such people do not care about other people that they oppress, they just want to feel powerful inside, or want to "get back" at society for their own oppression. |
