Why in the hell hasn't the Bible been banned and/or burned in this rash of book censorship?

From a post:

"The bible is the worst writing of fiction and has been a tool used for brainwashing for several thousand years. It isn't a worthy source for real knowledge as it is full of historic inaccuracies, scientific impossibilities, mathematical improbabilities, moral hypocrisy, and creationism. Nothing of value can be learned from reading such a book."


Infanticide, homicide, murder, rape, incest and corruption, and racism - yet, stands as the moral backbone of religion and the book to base one's life on to be a "good" human.

A week ago or so, recorded it and nearly got hurt trying to get out of there after. Very bold action, very telling given the crowd's response.

You could have also included genocide, enslavement, torture, domestic violence, pedophilia, child abuse (and the list goes on).
