If you want your world rocked, then these books are for you.

If you want to come closer to Christ, I would suggest going elsewhere.

The truth, I just want the truth..

Honestly? As a pastor who is charged to protect his sheep, I'd warn my people to stay as far away as possible from this list.

So you haven't actually read them. You've only "heard" of them. Not all...just a few. But you would tell "your people" to stay away and not read them. As far away as possible...... from books you haven't even read.

How unsurprising.

The book burners would be proud.

Censorship of books not even read. The book burners would be proud.

No wonder the fundamentalists get upset when I urge them to get a library card.

Who are these fundamentalists you constantly speak of? Is there a list somewhere?

Kind of like if one is poor or wealthy, they know who they are.

Oh, goodness no. Lists of people adhering to a particular religion, doctrine or lifestyle are for fascists.

Isn't it judgmental to label someone as fundamentalist?

I name no names...it is not judgmental to say there are those who are fundamentalist, closed minded oppressive people...tell me there are NOT people like this?
