In the US, we have some states that make it a crime to buy or sell sex toys. There is also the constant clamor from the Christian right to pass laws banning porn and restrict the content in TV shows and video games.

Aw, how adorable....someone too young to remember Tipper Gore's crusade.

No, all religions are NOT equal when it comes to this stuff. Heck, with islam there is a WIDE range of views on topics.

I'm a little disturbed that you are trying to paint all religions with the brush of extreme zealotry.
