I think the sad part is that any of this even exists at all. If you don't like a book, don't read it. That's all...no need to ban anything just because it offends your fragile ego.

Isn’t Utah the one where they banned their own religious texts? Hurt itself in confusion.

Their god is so weak that he needs humans to…checks notes…stop people from sharing ideas.
