This is another symptom of what you're describing. It's insanity. I found this
on a link from your page. A seven year old girl was suspended from a US school
because she told a kid he was going to hell for saying "I swear to God"

================================================== =====
Go ahead. Suspend 7 year olds for saying "hell", or carrying a pair of nail
clippers, or mentioning God at all. Censor Janet Jackson's right breast, and
bash anyone over the head, call 'em and enemy combatant and throw them in jail
for life if they disagree with anything Bush says!
How did we get here anyway? And is this where we really want to be? The fact
that I am addressing this on a British news server says so much about the
absurdity of where we are. Hell? Not yet but at this rate, the U.S. is
definitely beginning to feel like an embarrassing joke, at the very least!

If we called them terrorists, we would have to shoot them. Take your
choice.
