In Overland Park, Kansas, a group known as Citizens for Literary Standards in Schools, which describes itself as a group of like-minded parents who are concerned with the content and quality of many of the books assigned as required reading in our public schools, has a list of 30 literature books that it has classified as The Blue Valley F-List.
Why do I mention this? Well, because, get this: for each book they LIST ALL THE PROFANITY and reprint samples of the passages they consider to be obscene! I swear, sometimes Christian Fundamentalists can be funnier than dirt. Oh, and it's a great example of the "righteous" attempting to exert control over thought. Anyway, check it out, because they have put a lot of effort into this, in spite of its obvious foray into censorship.
