Over 100 Bible-toting parents and children joined Republican lawmakers at the Utah state Capitol this Wednesday to protest a school district’s decision to remove the bible from elementary and middle school libraries, the Associated Press reported.
Earlier this month, a Utah school district committee designed to flag books that contain sexual content said that the Bible would be allowed in high school libraries but not in elementary and middle school libraries within the district after someone objected to the book’s contents.
The anonymous challenge to the Bible was in all likelihood a protest by someone looking to expose the perceived hypocrisy of laws that police the content of school books.
