We’ve no need to mock Christianity: all we do is point and laugh while they do the job for themselves.

Wow, G.G., if a single book of fiction can threaten a religion that’s two millenia old and has hundreds of millions of adherents in various forms, I wonder why someone hasn’t put it out of its misery before.

Oh, wait, this is one of those stealth marketing campaigns, where you pretend to be concerned so we all go out and buy this book to spite you? Why else would you target Freethought Blogs rather than one of the millions of Christianity-based* sites? It’s not like most people here will find ‘because it mocks Christianity’ as compelling an argument to get rid of the book. Quite the opposite.

* Or even a neutral parenting site.

I’m reminded of the song from the musical “The Fantasticks”…

Why did the kids put beans in their ears?
No on can hear with beans in their ears.
After a while the reason appears,
They did it cuz we said NO!

If I were the headmaster of a private school, those would be some of the precise books I would “ban” in the full expectation that they’d be passed around — all the students sniggering behind my back at how they’re pulling a fast one on me.

This person has probably graduated by now. I hope they’ve passed on the tradition and the collection to someone else.

About Banned Books:

Some things need to be banned. It sounds harsh, but think about it- We don’t let porn in libraries for kids, or bomb making instructions in school libraries, do we?

Some things are just as dangerous, such as hate speech against a minority group or even a religion.

One such book is going around on line, which means that no body in the world governs it at all. The only thing we can do is try to stop the publisher, Orange Cat Publishing, from releasing the work this October first.

It’s called Keeley Thomson:Demon Girl and is by K.L. Byron. Kids have already been reading it illegally (file sharing sites and a leaked copy) online.

We must work together to stop such things, or the whole Christian faith will be threatened!

Thank you for choosing to work with us against works that promote distain for Christian thought.
