The left is all about sexualizing children before they are emotionally mature enough to handle it. It’s all in the plan to normalize pedophilia.

We never quite get to the real point, which, it occurs to me, is how come students are asked -- or required -- to spend their valuable time with Garth Stein, say, in preference, say, to Nathaniel Hawthorne or, if you want to get modern, Walker Percy. What confers on abortion and homelessness -- real as these horrors may be -- greater relevance than the topics with which the Greeks wrestled: pride, fate, honor, the conflicts that can arise between passions of very different origins and character.

IMO Walker Percy's Lost In The Cosmos should be required reading at the high school level. I recommend it to everyone.

Tell them that King James was gay--then his translation of the Bible should pass muster.

(Yes, I know he didn't personally do the translation.)

So, if you read Moby Dick instead of “The Art of Racing in the Rain” you are a book banner?

Then obviously if you do read, “The Art of Racing in the Rain” you have effectively banned Moby Dick. Which is I believe the point of the exercise. There are books being banned but not by us.
