Get ready for the next step in banning books against common sense.
The next book that will have to be banned is the dictionary — for it contains all the words and meanings for which books are banned.
Words were given to us to communicate with each other, to share ideas, and enlighten the mind. Anything can be used for good or evil.
We must choose good or evil.
Hopefully our educators will learn to distinguish literature according to its theme. Hopefully our children will be presented with literature that will inspire their imaginations, encourage them to dream dreams, and give them hope for the future.
Childhood is such a brief yet important time. There will always be some who want to spread the evil things of life. We must all do our best to impart wisdom to our children so they can learn to discern what’s true and good.
