Holy Bible bad, “gay penguin” book good

Posted on November 17, 2006

The “Twilight Zone” moment continues:

Complaining about the book’s homosexual undertones, some parents of Shiloh Elementary School students believe the book _ available to be checked out of the school’s library in this 11,000-resident town 20 miles east of St. Louis _ tackles topics their children aren’t ready to handle.

Their request: Move the book to the library’s regular shelves and restrict it to a section for mature issues, perhaps even requiring parental permission before a child can check it out.

For now, “And Tango Makes Three” will stay put, said school district Superintendent Jennifer Filyaw, though a panel she appointed suggested the book be moved and require parental permission to be checked out. The district’s attorney said moving it might be construed as censorship.

    The district’s attorney is correct. Moving the book might be construed as censorship. There is already a similar case winding its way through the courts.

    (Jay, can you provide the link to your post regarding the other case? I believe it was about a month ago.)

    It would be prudent to await the outcome of that case.
