Bible is Banned in a Texas School. Sexually Explicit

 

Here is news too fun to ignore. A school district in Texas has pulled the Bible from its shelves because it contains sexually explicit material. Atheists have been laughing for years about banning books with sexual material but defending, even requiring, the Bible. I wonder what will happen in Oklahoma where the state Superintendent of Schools is trying to require classroom use of the Bible?

A large part of the Christian faith has part of its brain missing. That is the part that would logically conclude that any special treatment of Christianity will inevitably bring about a demand from some other religion. Christian operatives have been lucky so far. Established non Christian religions in the U.S. have measured the grief, terrible treatment and misery they will see directed at them is they both the whistle on Christianity's belligerent and pushy authoritative moves. They have decided, so far, eye rolls about Christians who takes more "religious freedom" for themselves and less for other religions is all they have wanted to do. Black people and gay people eventually refused to be treated as second class citizens. Non Christian religions have not done this yet. 

Things are changing. New groups, mostly white U.S. people I suppose, are doing what conservative Christians always thought they had intimidated away. The new groups are doing the unthinkable, attacking the porn and polygamy in the Bible. Maybe when there is some reflection the mass murders by God in the Bible will be compared to the mass shootings today. 

If I were the moral czar, I would require that every time a favored scripture was used in public one of the least favorites would read as well.  One would be, "If a man sells his daughter to another as a servant, she has no right to liberty as would a man." (Exodus 21:7) Or, "You longed for lewdness when the Egyptians fondled your breasts." (Ezekiel 23)
