The 2nd paragraph pretty much summarizes my feeling too.
Religious censorship is like saying "my way, or highway". The Almighty has asked us to be open to others' views...and whether we like it or not, there are different views in the world. Rushdie and Taslima Nasreen's cases are laughable...it's like saying "pagol re shako naraite kois na". It just shows that we haven't yet learnt how to accommodate certain types of OTHERS among us. We don't need to like them...neither do we need to go nutts over things that someone has said. Like you said, just avoid reading it if you don't like it. Simple.
I do, however, believe in age-based censorship.
