Rewriting the classics: Should we, could we, why would we?
First of all, hello everybody. I'm a brand new member who's finally signed up after knowing about this site for a long time. Looking forward to seeing what else this site has in store.
Unless you've been living on another planet, you'll all know about the raging debate regarding the children's books written by Roald Dahl and now Ian Fleming's books have come under attack as well. I have to say that I'm all for censorship where it matters, so that we all have a good idea of what's right and what isn't and we all know where we stand. And over the last few years, there are a lot of changes that have occurred that I'm pleased to see have taken place, although I know many won't agree with me and that's fine. But that said, I disagree with any kind of censorship, reform, or amendment that is done…
Today everything is being changed super fast. I reckon by the time my boys are adults, alot of the things I grew up with will have changed beyond all recognition. I don't really know how I feel about it. I guess I would say that if it's important for something to be changed then OK. but if it's just for the hell of it or for the sake of fashion then that's a different story.
