Censorship is a "comfort item". Like giving a baby a dummy it placates. It makes some "feel good".
Your article demonstrates a lack of understanding of human behaviour,a failure to understand the power of religion (in all its forms and manifestations) and the immense harm it has done to children over centuries. Yet it (religion) is an accepted driver of this Internet censorship issue.
I am also disappointed at your demonstrated lack of Internet skills. A simple Google with some very basic search criteria, would have given your article much more depth. Perhaps you may have even gained some further understanding of the issues.
Academically brilliant you may be,your youth and therefore, a limited life experience, is very evident.
I read, I commented. The real world is away from your academic desk.
