Every time you find out the reasons why or figure out the criteria of why the ban is in place for any book .... the Christian Bible should also be banned for the same reasons.

Every time you see a book ban, buy or download the book for posterity.

I only read through Maus yesterday. I'm not sure what left me more haunted - some of the recollections, or the reading of Wikipedia about the camps and extermination afterwards.
