I Never Thought I'd Agree with Censorship, but..

There's a group in Hong Kong complaining that the Bible has too much sex, violence and other assorted nastiness. Although my reading of the Bible is both distant and imperfect, this seems to me to be the truth. Personally I don't hold this against the Bible, most of my favorite books have at least some sex and/or violence, but I like the way that this complaint is being made so as to use the fundamentalists' own logic against them.

Here's the article.

It seems likely that there'll be the usual railing against Harry Potter when the next and final volume appears appears on July 21st. When the calls for censorship come on the grounds of promotion of the supernatural, I hope someone calls for a ban on the bible for the same reason.

If a good library has something to offend everyone, a good librarian should be able to to offend anyone.
