Schools in Utah ban Bible for 'vulgarity and violence'

It was built on many freedoms but conservative Christians and Republicans are TERRIBLE when it comes to respecting the rights of others. They love censorship and banning books and the Bible getting banned is a logical result of their crusade because it is far more atrocious, violent, sexually depraved and abusive towards children than the stuff the conservatives get banned.

The difference is the Bible covers thousands of years; 6000 years. It attempts to historically discuss important spans of time, within the much larger time span of 6000 years of spiritual history, using stories about the spirit of those unique and specific times.

It does not fixate on one thing, throughout the whole bible; (all the stories are not about just human sacrifices). That did occur at one point in time but not all time. It is designed to make objective observations of the good and bad, and offer lessons about the evolution of civilized man, so we can have persecutive for his continuing growth.

If violence is so bad, maybe we to need to ban history books. History books use the same template. They discuss main observational data for different points in time, in terms of the major social changes, often precipitated by war. But it too does not fixate on one thesis, throughout the entire book. It shows the good, bad and ugly so we can learn and evolve. We learn about the concentration camps not because people crave being mean, but to help us learn not to repeat those mistakes.

Critical race theory uses a manipulative template, which is why is was banned. It fixates on one theme for 400 years of history; slavery. and pretends like nothing was learned and nothing has changed. This is banned because it is not a honest, objective or rational. It is stuck in manipulative denial.

At the least the bible is not afraid to share its dark secrets at given times, since one can learn from mistakes. Critical race theory forgets to include how the Democrat party fought the Civil war to maintain slavery and how it was behind the systemic racism of the 20th century; south will rise again. Instead it uses revisionist history to sanitize itself; not being very honest or objective. The goal is to dumb you down into an angry mob, and not help you to acquire perspective and wisdom.

The other books banned by Conservatives attempt to manipulate minors to the Liberal gender bending fad that benefits Big Med and Big Apparel. These books glorify a fad but offer no perspective as to why this movement now exists. It was not always here. If children were taught that perspective, their IQ would go up and not down.

What complete trash the above is, and then you don't tell the fact that was already referred to you and why that the political parties ended up making a gradual shift in positions going back to FDR's administration. Why don't you commit yourself to telling the truth?

And then you misrepresent the CRT is such a disingenuous way, such your absurd claim that it says "nothing has changed". Simply put, that's simply a bold-faced falsehood.

Here, maybe do some homework from a non-partisan source for once: Critical race theory - Wikipedia

There's a difference between "in 1066 William the ******* invaded Briton" and "happy is he who dashes your little ones against rocks." A difference between teaching Nat Turner's slave revolt and an order from an alleged proohet of god "kill them all but the young women who you can keep as sex slaves."

Christ, you get so damned butthurt whenever the rampant corruption, etc. incompetence, hypocrisy of republicans gets exposed. Can't stand having your idols and heroes slapped off of their pedestals, can you.

Oh I know. But it seems the butthurt is shared equally by those making the first post critical of Republicans as if they are the only ones doing all the nefarious stuff.

I just nudge in a gentle reminder here and there.
