If you believe in the bible, bully for you. (I've never heard of any bands of rampaging Christians murdering retail store clerks because they were working on Sunday). If you don't, then it is no more damaging than a random novel.
I bet you can find million of examples of potentially dangerous ideas in all sorts of novels. THe only difference here is that its the Bible - and people get all worked up when talking about religion they don't agree with.
Is anyone really in danger from Walmart-going Christians trying to enslave people, stone women, or kill infidels? |
I have to agree. Now, if you said they wont allow another religious book to be sold on the shelves then i would be concerned. As long as all religions can have the same spot on the shelf i don't have a problem. I don't think a political book that did have nudity in it should be compared to a religious text.
