So the very values promoted by the left, sexual promiscuity, exhibitionism, homosexuality, and depravity in general are precisely the values that “conservative” islam detests. I may be in the minority on this one, but Jay-Lo’s ass or anything coming out of Hollywood for that matter isn’t my idea of freedom or the values of the western world that we should be promoting. Pretty embarrasing and low class.

I understand your point of view but i think that the salient point here is that the Azerbajanis are becoming more free to choose the values they will adopt. If it’s J-Lo’s butt, that’s a net loss. If it’s freedom to abandon islam and adopt a more rational approach to life, that’s a net positive. I’m certainly willing to take the chance on freedom; it works almost everywhere.

"values"

True to a point, but the price of living in a free society is that we allow people to make fools out of themselves without penalizing them. Unless they break laws. Free speech = free expression. Free societies would rather allow individual citizens to shun what they don't like rather than allow the government to make the decision for them. I don't find J. Lopez's talents any more interesting than you do, but I won't lift a finger to stop her from doing her uh act.
