The Libertarian viewpoint is first and my viewpoint is in red.
1.1 Expression and Communication
We support full freedom of expression and oppose government censorship, regulation or control of communications media and technology. We favor the freedom to engage in or abstain from any religious activities that do not violate the rights of others. We oppose government actions which either aid or attack any religion.
As a parent, I am not 100% in agreement with the lack of regulation in communications media. Children should not be subjected to condom commercials, foul language, etc. while watching a show they want to watch. The only regulation I would put into place is to designate some broadcasting and some cable/satellite stations as children stations, where commercials would have to be child friendly.
Beyond that, religion or the lack thereof is a person's personal choice. Where religious organizations hold their services can not be infringed upon. I fully support the building of a mosque near Ground Zero; afterall, the notion that all Muslims are terrorists is just as true as all priests are child molesters. It's simply not true.
