Enough with the book banning, I don't care if it's Marx, Engels, Hitler, Stalin, Moses, Mohamed, or even Joseph Smith, leave their books on the shelves. If you don't want to read them don't, but don't stop others from becoming informed. The only way most of us have of understanding other cultures and ideas is to read the actual works of the people that proposed them.
The thing that books did for me was to inform me, entertain me, and help me develop new ideas.

Poverty, unattainable basic health care, decent education, and crimes against women. These are some of the problems that are ignored in favor of their interpretation of their so called god.
Anyone who doesn't see something wrong with that is lacking in compassion, understanding, and empathy.

It is a cult of the brain-damaged. (...but aren't they all?)
The Creed of the Far Right:
"Anybody who refuses to conform to our ideas about how societies and individuals are required to behave are a real and present danger to the country. All atheists, foreigners, and followers of faiths other than our own are to be banished or killed."
