A Free Society
In a "free society" it is intrinsic that individuals and groups have the
inherent right to propagate ideas and try to win converts. We do not look
upon an idea different from us as an anomaly which should be precluded. 
Nor do we permit only innocuous or congenial beliefs and forbid those that
we believe are dubious or spurious. In a country of competing pressures
we are accosted by a surfeit of propaganda that tends to overwhelm us.
Thus, we live in a milieu of ubiquitous bombardment from countless, and
often unrecognized, propagandists.
