No Joe, I think people should have access to all books be they "Mein Kampf", "The Manifesto" or any of the religious books. I have read the bible because it is an index into
the popular mind. I have read a little of the koran and the torah as well. I even have read some of the Tea Party tracts and other stuff I definitely don't agree with. I am not in favor of changing any books but I don't have to agree with them especially since they are given status as "books".

I am not in favor of banning books so that can't be pinned on me.

It's the same old tautology, Joe. "Books don't write books, people do."

Books are often used as weapons and that's exactly why they should be read.

Once read, then they can be rejected if need be.
