sovereign of blood's blog: "My Rants"

I know this is a little late but here is my St. Patrick’s Day Post, unbeknownst to many people is the symbolism of the holiday. We all know the story of how St. Patrick drove all the snake out of Ireland but what most do not know is the snake were not snakes at all but people of the pagan religion. So I ask this of you next St. Patty’s to wear a snake as remembrance of those who are forgotten on the holiday which plays on their lose !

Does thought of book banning brings you mind to WWII Germany or something out of Fahrenheit 451? Up until recently the thought the idea of it still happening in our society as insane in the age of the internet and information I was wrong I just discovered in 2006 546 books was challenged or banned some for the sole reason homosexuality yes homosexuality! Because it is not moral who are these people to judge what is moral or not what is to extreme of obscene for me or my children when I have them. I and I alone have that choice and I will not sit and let someone attempt to make that choice for me in closing I will leave you with this quote from Ray Bradbury “There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches. Every minority, be it Baptist / Unitarian, Irish / Italian / Octogenarian / Zen Buddhist, Zionist / Seventh-day Adventist, Women’s Lib / Republican, Mattachine / Foursquare Gospel feel it has the will, the right, the duty to douse the kerosene, light the fuse….Fire-Captain Beatty, in my novel Fahrenheit 451, described how the books were burned first by the minorities, each ripping a page or a paragraph from this book, then that, until the day came when the books were empty and the minds shut and the library closed forever.”
