Do you think censorship leads to rebellion and or ignorance?

In response to Misty's question Do you think censorship leads to rebellion and or ignorance? I think that censorship leads to both of those things. For the most part no one likes being told what to do so first reaction is usually to rebel. If someone says you cant do something it becomes a challenge or a goal to prove someone wrong. For example with sports if someone told me I couldn't hit a home run my first reaction would be watch me; and with time, effort and drive I would prove them wrong. When being held back from exploring new things it either makes someone more curious or more scared. With some people censorship can lead them to not explore enough and become afraid or too dependent on others. Always needing advice or rules they may face many sticky situations with no idea how to deal with them.
My question is : Do you think that athletes are more likely to rebel then people who don't play sports? Do sports bring out more competition in athletes every day life?
