Hmmm. Probably one of those self-help/natural healing/spirit meditation books that have a cult following. Like the one that says all illness is caused by Liver flukes (I can't remember the name). People believe that crap and can lose their money or even their life.

I'm one for free speech and expression, but some of those bastards need to be stopped NOW.

58 posts. It Took 58 POSTS TO GET THIS MENTIONED

As for me, any book written by D.H. Lawrence. He is a shitty author who can't make any subject interesting. When you write a book about sex, you damn well better make sure your readers know there is sex happening.

Also the Kama Sutra. Whatever happened to figuring it out yourself for extra pleasure?

I think books that need to be burned or stopped are only the books that are over hyped or used purely to try and milk as much money while adding nothing, while causing other works to lose the attention they deserve for their innovations.

Over hyped books being terrible at this making the author keep making sequels when out of idea's purely for the fan's wish and their bank instead of making a new innovation, much like games and their sequels, my opinion anyway.

And so we have the customary Twilight insult, to qoute The Austin 'To kill an idea is worse than killing a man' how many traditional idea's and images had Twilight killed to replace with teens wearing to much makeup and glitter? In essence go Dracula.

I can't, but I can name some that weren't religiously driven (World War I, II), as that was the original point.

Everything by Neil Gaiman. I have never met a writer so lauded for being a brilliant, coming of age storyteller when he repeats ideas that have been done to death, writes like a mule, and has the dullest characters I have ever witnessed being put down onto paper.

Well, it would be nice to be worshipped. But on the other hand, me doing that would be an international crime, which would in turn make me a criminal, which would in turn prohibit me from owning guns. And I like my guns.

Maybe if I could turn invisible...
It is up to you to choose.

Just a suggestion, you might want to edit that. Something tells me that due to current events IRL, that might get you in trouble.

All war is political. And every war past 1500's. WW1, WW2, AMERICAN CIVIL WAR, AMERICAN REVOLUTION, WAR OF 1812, French Revolution, and Vietnam War. In fact almost every war was not religious. Heck the only big religious wars were the Crusades.

I was asking Skullkid, after seeing his posts lately on some topics, I wanted to see his reaction.

As an avid book reader, book burnings sound awful. It's death to an idea that someone took time to create. And we must respect that. Yes, even if its as worthless and pointless as something like Twilight. Because maybe if we just ignore it, it'll go away :)

The Quran and Twilight. The muslim religion is the cause of so much war and destruction. Twilight is just a crappy series written by a crappy author.

Not worried my friend, they will hate whities regardless, and I'm not about to tow a politically correct line and go against what I think. Thanks for the fair warning though.

Civil wars? Are you serious? That's just idiotic bickering, Revolutions are by the people, for the people. Vietnam war was created by just how fucking stupid some people are. And the World Wars were already stated.

Why destroy a book in the first place? Although they aren't the most popular, they're the worlds most powerful cultural medium.
