::::::That equation doesn't make sense. There is no time variable in the function. Placing any time in the equation will not affect the outcome. For example, if the time is 2 years, that will give us <math>E(2)={\operatorname{c}100\over\operatorname{c}+o} \!</math>. But it will turn out the same if we make time 3, 4, 5, or any other amount of years because time is not factored into the equation. I think a better way to express the equation would be <math>E(t,c,o)={\operatorname{ct}\over\operatorname{c}+o} \!</math>% where ''t'' is time in years. Now we can have the function as such:<math>E(1/2,5,10)={\operatorname{(5)(1/2)}\over\operatorname{5}+10} \!</math> Which gives us a censorability of 16.7% or .17 [[User:JonS|JonS]] 19:17, 5 June 2010 (EDT)
 
:::::::I'm no math major, but I don't know that time needs to be factored in; times censored over opportunities to be censored seems logical to me. Why would you multiply the result of ''that'' equation by time? If something is censored 50% of the time for 5 years ... does that mean that the censorability is 2.50? That's impossible; the percent would be 250%.--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 22:22, 5 June 2010 (EDT)
 
:::::: I see your point. But the original equation of E(t)=c/c+o, doesn't make sense. In that form it is not dependent on time, yet the E(t) suggests it is. E(c,o)=c/c+0 works to set a simple percent up, but if we want to add time we need to change the equation. [[User:JonS|JonS]] 15:20, 7 June 2010 (EDT)
==100% Censorable?==
:It's the rate of attempts and the successful public censorship by lawmakers and regimes around the globe. But like in China, the underground Church thrives. The Soviets made strong attempts at crushing Christianity without success.--[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 22:56, 28 May 2010 (EDT)
::Nice insight into the censorship of Christianity. [http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/cristinaodone/100037664/homosexuality-is-legal-christianity-should-be-too/] --[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 00:20, 29 May 2010 (EDT)
 
::Many anti-Christians think they can win by censoring Christianity, and in some environments (e.g., liberal college campuses) the censorship does largely prevail. Denial of this phenomenon may delay remedying it.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 00:25, 29 May 2010 (EDT)
