   I’d rather live with playboy readers than FPI members.

   It is pity that expressions of violence either in the movies, or speech are not banned instead. Loving expressions of family intimacy, or other forms of expressing intimacy are harmless unlike violence.

   As an anthropologist traveling the world to see which cultures have the most harmonious and loving way of rearing their children. The Pacific Island cultures, or Polynesian are the ones which by loving and and a bonding manner of rearing their children are very peaceful and benign.

   Unless of course they are invaded by outsiders then they will use whatever means to protect themselves. Incidentaly, while individuals in Polynesia regard most pornography in the West as boring and of little interest they do not produce pornography of any kind.

   Loving, exotic images of the lovely women and men in their culture but expressions of violence such as S/M or other means of violence. No.

   Strange that this post did not attract more attention in light of later posts on similar subject matter. Perhaps 206 was not the year for this debate?

   what is the current news on the RUU-APP? i have been trying to find out the past week on the progress of it, to no avail. every single article is based on 2006, apart from a youtube doco by journeyman picture, i haven’t found any.

   my take on it; HIGHLY AGAINST IT! By passing out Indonesia will run the risk of further ethnic backlash, even separatist movements for independence from Indonesia will increase. this country is formed on the base of diversity, its the philosophical foundation of our great country.

   1. Belief in the one and only God (Ketuhanan yang Maha Esa) – not believe in one religion and one religion only (if that was the case, Indonesia will have half the size what they are now. some of the provinces will simply go by itself).

   2. Just and civilized humanity (Kemanusiaan yang Adil dan Beradab) – is it civilized to deprive people of their cultural heritage, to forcefully make them adhere to a law that in so many ways contradicts their way of life. A lot Indonesian feel offended by the so call ‘western influence’, how do they think the non-Muslim and moderate Muslim will feel about the ‘Arab influence’?
