Our friend, censorship. It must be our friend, for it accompanies us wherever we go. Governmental organizations are set up to keep certain words and images from being broadcast on TV and the radio. Weird.

It all goes along with the idea of offense. We all wish not to be offended. We wish not for that which is offensive to sweep into our lives. Yet rarely do we ever realize offense as a choice.

We rarely look at the facts: there are vibrations hitting my ear drums and electrically being translated into my perceptive awareness as meanings that provide me with stress. Yet this sound never causes stress for ears belonging to heads and bodies that do not speak the language these sounds are coming from. An Italian guy doesn't care if he sees the word “fuck” in Taiwanese on television. He has no clue what the generally accepted meaning of the sound is. For all he knows, the word spoken meant “wild flower.”

So, if there is a relativity in the sounds that we hear, and we are the choosers of its meaning, shouldn't we also be able to take in any outward vibration and let it be without giving it the generally accepted meaning? Shouldn't we fess-up and say to ourselves in the most honest voice: “I am fully responsible for all offenses I experience.”

Right and wrong, as a thing to be taught, is the same as any mental idea. It's unnecessary. There would be no crime if there were no oppression and money. There would be no violence, if there were to be no bondage, debt, and ideas of a ruling God.
