I am not a fan of censorship, but I do believe that certain books should be banned.

Quote:the book contained sexually charged material and mocked the Christian religion.

I wonder which upset them more?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

They can't debunk the criticisms, and they're not allowed to kill heretics, so they just have to ban things that make them uncomfortable.

Sexually charged material already mocks christian values, so it's a two for one.

That they have to live a life of suppressing sexual desires that their religion doesn't allow them to embrace.

Yup, they certainly can't get away with killing us anymore.

By that criteria, the bible mocks Christian values, considering it's full of rape, sex and incest.

Do you want the public schools to have the students read books with sexually charged material?

Good reason to not allow the bible in public schools!

I would like comprehensive sex education to be in schools, given that abstinence only is unhealthy and doesn't work.
