Oh, and do please include pornography and books trying to justify pedophilia in your considerations

I don't think any book should be censored. You cannot, nor should you even try to confine the human mind.

No books should be censored, all information should be available; but some books make me want to throw up, and I don't read them. If you don't like a book, don't buy it, and don't promote it by making a big fuss over it. How many copies of The Satanic Verses were sold because a fatwa was issued? (I say this despite the fact I heard it was a good book--I mean, how many extra copies were sold?)

NO books should be "censored" -Because NO ONE should have the "right" to decide what someone else SHOULD or SHOULDN'T read. They tried to do that in Germany in the early 1940s- and look what happend there... It's a dangerous "power grab" and it has NO place in the "free world..."

Absolutely none. Reading a book is a choice adults can make for themselves. Parents should be making choices for the books they wish for their own children to read... or not read.
Same for the TV! Don't like what's on the screen... turn it off!
