When I was in Catholic school they just wanted us to read.  I don't recall any book being a no-no.  By middle school most of us owned OUIJA boards.  You would think that would present the perfect opportunity to summon the dark side.

For a few weeks when I was in high school the curriculum (ahem) was listening to and discussing Jesus Christ Superstar.  I guess my little Catholic hometown wasn't so uptight.

Fantasy books were not banned when I was in Catholic schools (1953-1966), but books on evolution, comparative religious studies, or atheism were not available in the school libraries either.

They actually don't dislike fantasy books.

They just don't want competition for theirs...
