Not connected to this story but interesting in light of it, the bizarre irony is this is “Read a banned book” week (Sept. 21-27) sponsored by the American Library Association.

Of course, included in their list of recommendations are stories promoting twisted self loathing, perverted sexuality, drugs, and delinquency etc...(even to High School students),yet apparently they have a major problem recommending the Bible. A very ‘banned’ book.
(Then they wonder why the culture is collapsing into debauchery.)
I’m sure the writings of Mao and perhaps Mein Kampf are on a reading list. Actually, I did read Mein Kampf (being home schooled) and it was quite enlightening in the fact that if it was read prior to WW2 just maybe ....but it was banned in Boston at the time.
One of my neices is a manager of multiple library locations (super nice gal, but liberal) and posted the Read a Banned Book marketing on Facebook. I told her I definitely agreed, and posted a link to the article about this school. Crickets since then.
