I learned today that 5 of my books are among the more than 1600 books banned in some schools right now.

In my youth, parents were happy when their children read books.
True.
My parents read.
I did read the bible once. That might have been what made me an atheist.
@grin @neilhimself I liked the Koran better. English translation which is blasphemy. Did not like the Bhagavd Gita (sp?). Zen and Taoist books made the most sense to me. Particularly like Chuang Tsu. Have yet to try the Book of Mormon.
@rrb @neilhimself well not THOSE parents....
