    I just got through reading some of the opposing comments to this on Icann. I have to say after reading some of the religeous fanatics comments it freaked me out "you will be damned". "WE WARN" I think we've got a scary times ahead and it's not because I'm afraid of whats going to happen in the afterlife. It's all of these delusional religeous beliefs that are eventually going to come to a crossroad that is if they haven't already. I can see the headlines now. "Christian man blows up .xxx headquarters."

    I wouldn't consider him Christian then. I see nothing wrong in .xxx but I'm afraid it will simply create more opportunities to distribute porn on the web thus further increasing xxx sales. Unless there's some sort of legislation introduced to force all adult related ventures to go .xxx, which I highly doubt, this will solve nothing but help the xxx industry.

    My problem is not what faith a person decides to follow. It's the desire to force those beliefs on others. If you believe that if you strap a bomb to yourself and run into a building full of people you will get 72 virgins for all eternity then you're a radical. If you make threats like "WE WARN" and "You will be damned to hell" if you look at a picture of a naked person then you are just as radical in my mind.

    It's the hipocrisy of it all really. Religions see nothing wrong with their bingo halls and think Ted Haggard will be cleansed of his gayness in "religeous rehab." But when it comes to my right to worship the female body or play a poker game, I will be damned.

    I still haven't figured out how those 72 virgins stay virgins for all eternity. I guess thats where the chirstian part comes in. You can only touch or look at one for the whole time. Ah crap that doesn't work either that makes 71.

    A big concern is that if there is a .xxx it will increase political pressure to censure the rest of the web.

    Lawmakers can make it illegal to have anything remotely "adult" on a .com because "thats what .xxx is for".

    I think it will cause mass censorship of the rest of the web, if .xxx is created.

    Re: google '.XXX' Domain Name Under Consideration Again - CNSNews.com

    Thats whats so rediculous about it all. There's no way legislating porn to be only .xxx will ever happen and censoring it isn't going to happen. If I want to pay somebody to show me naked pictures of women then I should be able to do that. I've never done it mind you. I prefer to pay for live action..lol But if I did it's not anyones business but my own. If I want to gamble my money away at a poker game thats my business aswell. If Haggard wants to be gay, let the man be gay.. Don't try and hide it..

    I see the "hiding it" as more of a problem. IE Parents not talking with their children about all of these things and expecting someone else to do it or just plain hiding it and allowing them to figure it all out on their own is the root of the problem. Now pair a curious kid up with a Catholic priest who's hiding his sexuality then you get a child molesting priest. It's not something that just started happening. That crap has been going on for years. But it was in "hiding" It was hush, hush.. And when they get outed what happens? They get shipped off to another country to some other church for a "religeous rehab." I asked a friend years ago when he got out of rehab what he learned and he told me, "I learned how to hide it better."

    Where's the blame for all of those guys 30, 40, 100 years ago because it surely wasn't the internet and they lived holy lives apparently? Was it playboy magazines? On that note my favorite magazine as a kid was mom's monthly Victoria's Secret. I was waiting at the mailbox on that delivery day.. If you want to blame someone for my "sinful desires" I guess you can place blame on Victoria's Secret. I thought I was in heaven when I finally came across playboy though I tell ya... Hell I would be kicked out of the family if I placed blame on them and went on a religeous crusade to ban Victoria's Secret and I come from a pretty religeous family.

    When I was a teenager I remember all of the churches around town got together in a religeous quest to ban the TV show "three's company" from the local TV station. I don't remmber if they actually suceeded but I do remember thinking "What is so wrong with it." I actually liked the show myself.. But wasn't allowed to watch it not because Jack was acting gay although I'm sure some had a problem with that. It was because there was a guy living in an apartment with two girls. lmao The ironic thing about it all is the show was about exactly that. A straight guy having to act gay to room with two females because their landlord was living in the stone age.

    JMJ: you mix up religions. Christianity doesn't grant you sexual life after life.
    I agree with the rest you said.

    But thats where the problem is. Not everyone is christian. Sure you would like for everyone to be. As would the Islamic folk. As for me I'll gamble on neither one of you being right.

    Spot on. If dot XXX goes ahead a licence fee will almost certainly be included in the registration fee, which will be very substantial. The quid pro quo will almost certainly be that all none XXX will get shut down as unlicensed. It is a predictable as the sunrise tomorrow morning. The Bush Administration wants to regulate and tax and the gaming experiment has proved they can do this.

    If the goal for them was to tax and regulate the industry they would have taxed and regulated the industry. They've done nothing but show how much they take after Mr. Roper.
