<p>For the record, sorry if you don’t get the repetition in my posts apparently, but I do not wish to do away with anyone’s religious tenets! I was not debating their tenets. I was discussing censorship and intolerance. If they want to allow this or that behavior, and their followers are fine with it, so be it. I don’t see a need to censor materials that depict those who don’t follow their tenets. That doesn’t mean I want to do away with their religion or tell them what to believe. Those of different religions, sexual orientations, race, or cultures can embrace one another by learning about one another and not closing off access to understanding and tolerance, while not having their own religion be at stake. I don’t feel threatened when I watch a play that depicts beliefs or ways that I disagree with. I learn of those who are different but it doesn’t mean I must be swayed to not maintain my own beliefs. I see censorship as putting up a wall.</p>
