Should we ban older films for being too offensive? (The satire "The Last Temptation of Christ" - 1988)

It depends on what is the offending part, but in general, no!

I already can't stand that some older animation from the likes of a Tex Avery for instance have been cut down to cut out things that are considered racist these days. Magical Maestro, Uncle Tom's Cabana... They are considered art. It's as if somebody would come with a tee to cover up the Venus from Milo, or paint a black bar over Adams crotch in the Sistine Chapel.

Warner Bros handles this quite classy.

I own European Video cassettes of some Tex Avery shorts, which are prefaced by a similar message and no editing at all. I hold on to my old VCR almost just for those vids

Then they got re-released on DVD with heavy editing...
