Conservative groups all over the country are attempting to censor what your children are able to read in their libraries. Some group of Kansas parents even banned Charlotte's Web about 17 years ago. What will be next, Dr. Suess? Dick and Jane( phallic name in the title)??
Well, now, a Utah parent is fighting back against these insane cult-like creatures:
A Utah parent has filed a request to ban God’s most popular blog, the Bible, from schools, citing and ridiculing a law passed last year that removed dozens of books from schools and libraries last year. “Get this PORN out of our schools!” they wrote in their request for the removal of the book.
In 2022, Utah passed a law banning books with “pornographic or indecent” content. The initial list of banned books included many titles that feature coming-of-age stories that also deal with themes of sexuality and gender, including Judy Blume’s Forever..., Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe, and Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult.
By those standards, the parent—whose personal information was redacted by the Davis School District for privacy reasons—is arguing that the Bible should be on the list.
“Incest, onanism, bestiality, prostitution, genital mutilation, fellatio, dildos, rape, and even infanticide,” the parent wrote in their request, according to the Salt Lake Tribune, which obtained a copy of the request. “You’ll no doubt find that the Bible, under Utah Code Ann. § 76-10-1227, has ‘no serious values for minors’ because it’s pornographic by our new definition.”
Even as a progressive who is against censorship, that's a banning I could almost get behind. Incredibly violent , pornographic tome. Even the most ardent and deeply programmed Christian apologist would have to agree.

Insane, evil, but mostly just dumb.

In the town of Corbin, there was an old hound
Whose debating skills were far from renowned
He'd argue and he'd prattle
With other folks' opinions he'd rattle
But never in his posts was logic found.
One day, he argued with great zest
That drag queens reading to kids was the best
But with no evidence to back his view
His arguments fell flat, it was true
And the old hound went home feeling depressed.
