I cannot understand any religious book banning. Instead, we should be putting all these books into school library resources, like I did in my son's school. They were giving free copies of Gideon's Bibles to the children in the library. A Jewish boy I know was upset, and when I enquired, it was indeed the case, and there were no other religious texts even available in the library of this middle school, where children were learning about world history and religions. So I got donations from local religious leaders, a Rabbi, an Imam, and leaders at a local Hindu village, of their religious books and got the school's lawyer's and other school officials' consents to place the books (including one from the Hindu village who uses 'The Bhagavad Gita As It Is') in the school library's resource section.
PLEASE DO NOT BAN RELIGIOUS TEXTS OF ANY KIND!
Sincerely,
