Message-ID: <2151@sdccsu3.UUCP> Date: Sun, 5-Aug-84 18:30:22 EDT Article-I.D.: sdccsu3.2151 Posted: Sun Aug 5 18:30:22 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 9-Aug-84 03:28:54 EDT Organization: University of California at San Diego Lines: 21 How typical of our puritan society. Presumably, these silly 'pagents' are held so that someone can be picked that represents the ideal of that particular type, someone that all others can strive to be like. Yet, let them deviate even slightly from the narrow-minded idiocy of the 'moral majority' fools and BAM! Into the outcast bin! How stupid. Always recall that our society was founded by puritans, who moved here to escape religious and moral persecution, and then did the same d*mn thing to everyone who wasn't THEIR religion and didn't have THEIR moral values (ask any American Indian!) Oh well, it's all perspective, right? Dave Taylor
