Some people have become so alarmed by what children might read in school or in libraries that they want books they don't like removed — immediately. The targeted books include scenes of sexual awakening, gender identity, racism or violence.But why aren't these alarmists focusing on a book that's chock-full of incest, rape and gore? I'm talking, of course, about the Bible.In Genesis 19:30-36, Lot's daughters get him drunk in a cave and his eldest daughter has incestuous sex with him. Judges 12 tells how an angry mob surrounds a Levite and his concubine, so he appeases them by handing over his companion.
