Anybody know which books? The Instagram post didn't say.

-Hopefully it was the Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price and the Doctrine of Covenants.

I don't support book banning even if they are books which I disagree with.

I hope to donate a copy of SWK M o Forgiveness....

(hoping it might be banned, that is...)

I encourage any store I see selling old copies of that filth to destroy it.

When they ask why, I tell them of all the harm it has caused, including suicides.

Now several of my local used book stores simply toss it out.

If any book deserves to be gently helped into recycling heaven is that one.

The real question is which banned books they will stock. What type will it be "My Penguin has Two Dads", "Pro-Ana Fasting Tips for Teens" or "the Anarchist's Cookbook"? Are some books more banned than others?

You're welcome to set up your own banned book machines. That way you can sell whatever you like and won't have to bother us with your sententious ramblings.

I still have my parents big leather bound quad in my library. Don't know why I still have it...23 years after dad died...sentimental reasons I guess...but I have had thoughts of soaking it with BBQ starter fluid and lighting it up at first snow....

Slightly off-topic. I encourage anybody who has old copies of Mormon "scriptures" to hold on to those. Why? Because the Mormon church tends to "memory hole" the things they now find inconvenient.

It might be useful to pull out some old gooks and show where these odd teachings are written down.

I agree Mr. Bone. I am holding onto a few.

I have copies of McConkie's "Mormon Doctrine", "The Miracle of Forgiveness" and various classics on Mormon archaeology. Also a couple of very racist texts which talk about blacks. Nowadays they seem to pretend blacks and Native Americans can do no wrong... rhe pendulum has gone the other way.
