Comments on: GAY PENGUIN BOOK REMAINS MOST CHALLENGED https://www.mambaonline.com/2009/04/17/gay-penguin-book-remains-most-challenged/ South Africa's leading LGBTQ news and community platform Fri, 17 Apr 2009 22:00:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Sebastian https://www.mambaonline.com/2009/04/17/gay-penguin-book-remains-most-challenged/#comment-8470 Tue, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.mambaonline.com/2009/04/17/gay-penguin-book-remains-most-challenged/#comment-8470 blah! blah!. The books they have listed as inappropriate are masterpieces in their own right. And how on earth do they justify the ‘Dark Materials” trilogy as being “violent and anti-religious.” Why isn’t Harry Potter on the list then?
In case they haven’t looked out their windows recently (and I doubt they have) these books do represent the rich multicultural tapestry of their nation. They are books that deal openly and honestly with subjects that every child will face as they grow up. Parents cannot hide the real world from their kids (and some try). Parents can either teach their kids to approach the situation with ignorance and fear, or with love & understanding.

I belive it not a case of if it shoul.d be published or not.
It should but needs to be for the apporopriate age group.

The truth about where babies comed from doesnt neccessarily get taught to a 3 yr old either.

PS- Sanastic = SATANIC.
