GOP lawmaker ‘very sad’ Utah parent used his law to request ‘sex-ridden’ Bible be removed from school

Responding to a new law allowing for "pornographic" books to be removed from school libraries, a Utah parent has moved to have "one of the most sex-ridden books around" removed as well, namely, the Bible.

The Salt Lake Tribune reports that the parent, who remains unidentified for privacy reasons, submitted their challenge on Dec. 11 along with an eight-page list of passages from the Bible that they found to be offensive and worth reviewing.

“Incest, onanism, bestiality, prostitution, genital mutilation, fellatio, dildos, rape, and even infanticide,” the parent wrote in their request. “You’ll no doubt find that the Bible, under Utah Code Ann. § 76-10-1227, has ‘no serious values for minors’ because it’s pornographic by our new definition.”

1. I believe that's called "malicious compliance."

[RobinA]

28. Malicious Compliance Is So Fun!!!

One great thing I learned in the working world!

[Martin68]

37. Nothing malicious about it. It's fair and it's logical.

[MayReasonRule]

40. Fair And Logical Is Defined As Malicious By The Machiavellian And Delsional

This is that.

Reason's logic restores. Reason is freedom.
Delusional diatribes destroy.
Delusion is death.

Malice and Delusion are mankind's eternal foes.

May reason rule.

[Hekate]

38. That's a great phrase, & I never heard it before

[MayReasonRule]

2. GOP has a sad!

But dildos. I don’t remember dildos from my bible days. I’ll have to look that up. You know, for my spiritual education purposes.

[TomSlick]

3. RE: Dildos in the bible

It's a reach, but see Ezekiel 16:17.

"You also took the fine jewelry I gave you, the jewelry made of my gold and silver, and you made for yourself male idols and engaged in prostitution with them."

[nilram]

4. Ah, yes. I can see that.

I was too young at the time, it went right over my head.

[Ocelot II]

5. Gold and silver dildos, even!

[Probatim]

17. Nothing but the best.

We have the best dildos. Silver dildos. Gold dildos --- trump dildos.

[Ocelot II]

18. Cold, though...

[jmowreader]

20. I don't even want to THINK about what a Trump dildo is for

[Probatim]

21. It's the "who" that's disturbing...

[RobinA]

29. I Can Tell You

what I'd do with it, and I wouldn't be touching it with anything but a sharp knife.

[Probatim]

19. If you wanted warmth, you wouldn't be using one...

but it would explain the look on Malaria's face.

[niyad]

26. you nearly owed me a keyboard. ewwwwwwww!

[yardwork]

6. Not such a reach. Seems clear!

[OrangeJoe]

10. So the dildo had to pay?

[Gore1FL]

16. It was worth it's weight in gold.

And that doesn't include practical enhancements to value.

[RobinA]

30. I Was Thinking

you make the male idol and then rent it out for use. Maybe that's what the parent had in mind who got the teacher fired for showing the kids David.

[NullTuples]

34. Wouldn't you know, the Evangelicals NLT version "translates" it thusly instead:

"You took the very jewels and gold and silver ornaments I had given you and made statues of men and worshiped them. This is adultery against me!"


(Translates is in irony quotes b/c the New Living Translation is known as a "paraphrase" Bible rather than an attempt at accurate source-to-English translation)

8. Such "saucefer."

"What is sauce for the good is sauce for the gander!

How dare someone step on that GQP rep's precious religious toes!

9. The Law of Unexpected Consequences...

or, sometimes stated as, play silly games win silly prizes.

[gratuitous]

11. It wasn't supposed to be used like that!

How distressing to have your little poison pen law turned against you like that.

[Evolve Dammit]

12. The Bible should be banned as it makes me think uncomfortable thoughts....

[erronis]

13. That would be my preferred line. I get squeamish thinking about Mary being raped by god.

And just think about Joseph's feelings. Poor dude! He was cuckolded by a non-existent creature.

Why didn't Mary just come clean and say that she was raped? That would have saved this world 2,000 years+ of mayhem and murder.

[Evolve Dammit]

14. I mean if "they" want to call out rape, incest, butchery, murder, the Bible's got it all.

[roamer65]

24. What Mary went through sounds an awful lot like what people say of alien abductions now.

Just makes me sometimes wonder.

Nothing I can certainly prove, just sounds awfully similar.

[oldsoftie]

15. Goose; meet Gander.

[jmowreader]

22. Here's the code section that applies

76-10-1227. Indecent public displays -- Definitions.

//removed the specific definitions which would turn this into a disallowed Sex Thread//

(2)
(a) Subject to Subsection (2)(c), this section and Section 76-10-1228 do not apply to any material which, when taken as a whole, has serious value for minors.
(b) As used in Subsection (2)(a), "serious value" means having serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value for minors, taking into consideration the ages of all minors who could be exposed to the material.
(c) A description or depiction of illicit sex or sexual immorality as defined in Subsection (1)(a)(i), (ii), or (iii) has no serious value for minors.

Please note (2)(c). The Bible is FULL of that kind of stuff - Lot's daughters getting him drunk and raping him two nights in a row certainly qualifies - so yeah, under this definition the Bible is a smut book.

[moonshinegnomie]

25. ban teaching the bible at church camps too

cant have the kids be exposed to such lewdness....

23. Lots of "Seed spilling onto the ground"

Boobs everywhere, prostitution, and I don’t know what this means, but I can guess:

“Blow on my garden, that its fragrance may spread abroad. Let my lover come into his garden and taste its choice fruits.”

[NCjack]

31. Asking for a friend in UT: Is the eight-page list available?

39. Without a doubt...

32. {violins} nt

[WhatTheFlux]

33. direct quote

Ezekiel 23:20 -- There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

[sdfernando]

35. Makes me think of

the eunuch scene in “History of the World, Part 1”

[Martin68]

36. This is the best way to fight hypocritical religious zealots. Demand the bible be subjected to the

same review process the right wing want to apply to other books, and insist on equal representation in public spaces for any and all other religions - including Satanism, Wicca, etc.

[MayReasonRule]

42. Agreed. Reason Is The Antidote
