It was only a matter of time before book bans reached the best selling book of all time: The Holy Bible. Right, last year Utah passed a law allowing parents to request the removal of books containing “indecent material” from schools. But in December, one anonymous parent complained to the Davis school district, north of Salt Lake City, saying, “If the books that have been banned so far are any indication for way lesser offenses, this should be a slam dunk.So a committee reviewed the complaint and found that even though the Bible didn’t violate the law, it was nevertheless inappropriate for elementary and middle school students. So it had the book removed from all those libraries in the district, and oh boy did people lose it. With 70 people appealing the decision, and hundreds protesting both the district and the state capital for letting this happen. And even the Republican lawmaker who sponsored the book ban bill, Ken Ivory, jumping in to protest his own law. With him now arguing the review committee needs to be overseen by elected officials to make sure standards are applied properly. But last night the appeals committee voted unanimously to put the Bible back on school shelves.
