ABSTRACT
We saw at the end of chapter 5 that the question of pornography prima facie creates a possible problem of toleration even in a society of reasonable people: reasonable Muslims might object to the activities of reasonable pornographers even when the latter’s activities are heavily regulated so as to shield Muslims from unexpected or unwelcome exposure to them. In chapter 6 I laid out the liberal rights-based account of harm according to which the Muslim’s complaints against the pornographer do not qualify as reasonable, and so do not provide grounds for further legislation of his activities in the form of censorship.
