This discussion has focused mostly on religious/non-religious arguments on this bug, so I'd like to remind the users that any rating system or blacklist should be centered on child protection and family use. My overall concern in this bug is allowing my family to use Ubuntu. When I know that PornView and DopeWars are possible search results, I'm less inclined to install it at home. Not to mention the use of Ubuntu in professional settings (which is actually where I encountered the PornView result), without a moderating enhancement Ubuntu will lose users who

a) see it as a potential for encouragement to a curious child or family member or
b) companies that see it as unprofessional and risky to their employees' productivity/effectiveness.

This bug isn't about the Bible or the Qu'ran. Take an hour, find a good shrink and a couch, and get over it already. This is about making Ubuntu user-friendly, whether you're a grown adult or a 5-year-old.
