Socket your correct that is your choice, however in this day and age vocalising those thoughts may cause offence to others and you could be liable to prosecution.
In the society I grew up in people respected others choices so the media, people and society in general avoided offending other people, didn't swear in front of ladies, didn't force unwanted opinions on people and in the main any predjudcies amongst their own circle.
Today you can do anything and there is no comeback, punch a teacher thats ok - Harrange an old man on the phone because your famous, thats OK - the BBC may be forced to act, but Brand will still sell books and sell out shows, Ross will be back in 3 months.
You can say in a 6pm magazine prgrame that Santa doesn't exist thereby ruining the magic of christmas for a lot of kids, theres no condemnation of anything,
