What ever happened to the Left’s fondness for defending & promoting “banned books”?

People who object to the Bible in a library should be publicly flogged.

Objected to by satanists, atheists (same thing; they just don’t realize it yet), Muslims, Commies, liberals, Obama, etc...

There is nothing in ancient history that is more documented than the Bible. And they’re trying to deny these books in libraries? They’re like NAZIs and ISIS.

"You have people who feel that if a school library buys a copy of the Bible, it’s a violation of Church and state," said James LaRue...

Any Lefty trying to run that line of "reasoning" by ol' Tom Jefferson, author of the 'separation of church and state' quote, would have gotten the taste slapped out of their mouth.

So what? What ever happened to finding the balls to tell totalitarians that they're wrong? What ever happened to just saying NO?

Administrators are worms.

The Bible is on American Library Association's list of 'most challenged' books.

The American Library Association is now on God's list of 'most challenged' associations.

The Bible has been hated and despised for over 2500 years.

Antiochus IV Epiphanes tried to destroy it.

The Caesars released the Legions of Rome to destroy it.

Mohammed tried to replace and destroy it.

Kings tried to prevent its translation.

Atheists denigrate it.

So what is in it that terrorizes them so? Perhaps they should read it and find out.

I had a comparative religion class in high school. It was more a comparative of the literary styles and mythology.

You kind of need to have religious books if you are going to have an “intellectual” conversation about them.

Each year the American Library Association fakes the “Banned Books Week” list to drum up business for itself. In reality, very few books are challenged and none have been banned since 1963. One year I found out the top listed book was challenged only four times all year across the entire USA. Big whoop. That same year the author of the ninth-listed book revealed that ALA told her others where challenged more than hers but since it dealt with homosexuality, they put it on the list.
