The Davis School District initially removed the Bible from school libraries after a review determined it did include "vulgar" content. But the school board unanimously reversed its decision after a review by an appeal committee determined the text has " significant, serious value for minors which outweighs the violent or vulgar content it contains," the AP reported.
There's no hypocrisy here.
We all knew they were gonna figure out a way that the law doesn't apply to them and the stuff they like. That's like the fundamental constant of conservatives, it's different when we do it because we're not those people.
Porn just needs some inspirational quotes to go along with it.

Time to start giving the kids leaflets that highlight all the Communist teachings of Christ. Use The Bible to radicalize the youth!
Betcha they yank the book, tout suite.
They'd just lie and say the pamphlets are twisting Jesus' words and use that as a pretext to ban the pamphlets.
Cognitive dissonance is a helluva drug

Now to challenge the "significant, serious" value. Truth before law is based on facts, right?
Upthread I suggested leaflets that use chapter and verse to highlight the Communist teachings of The Christ. Radicalize the youth using The Bible!
Betcha they yank the book, almost immediately.
That law is a complete waste of time. It's inevitable its going to be overturned (if theres at least a shred of common sense in the Virginia courts)
The majority of porn sites don't even bother trying to comply with laws like this and there's nothing state governments can do about it.
Yep, sites that wish to comply with the new regulation simply block traffic from those states. Search results for VPNs increase sharply for a few days and nothing really changes.
Laws arn't that easy to pass, makes you think if that effort was put into something constructive instead of reinforcing that prohibition doesn't work...
Deuteronomy 28:53-57, where you eat the flesh of your own children seems kinda indecent
Reddit still has users?
Unfortunately not only is Reddit still chugging along, Lemmy is slowly losing users.
Growing new communities is very hard and takes a long time.
EDIT - Adding my source
It sucks to get to the end of social media. On Reddit I could always find plenty of posts with hundreds of comments and many were worth reading or replying to. Lemmy absolutely has good content and good comments, but you can get to the end where there's no more. It probably doesn't help that I've been much quicker to block people over the cut of their jib. I don't come here to argue or hate people more than I already do, so I spend a lot less time and words embroiled in pointless conflict.
But I still haven't been back to Reddit and won't. When I get to the end of content I find myself going to TikTok or Instagram - two things that I've never liked but at least it's a stress free way to kill time, just louder.
I feel the same way. On Reddit,, they used to joke that the best material was in the comments.
I've been using Sync and Thunder . There are lots of posts but often no comments at all.
Sometimes it feels like a big cave of silence.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!!

So much drunken incest...

Judges:19 where a guy throws his side piece to a crowd that wants to rape him in hopes they’ll be satisfied with raping her instead.
Ah time to quote from Eziekel 23:20...
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish, and the tyranny of evil....wait...23:20? Oh. Well nevermind then.
Now I kinda want to hear Sam Jackson say "There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses."
Also, why the need to specify a distinction between donkey genitals and horse semen? Do horses or donkeys have bigger cocks? Do horses or donkeys cum more? I don't know, but whoever wrote that passage into the Bible seemed to know.
Same size cocks but donkey are smaller so they look bigger. In those days a flaccid bee-dick was the mark of a cool-headed thinking man; clearly capable of controlling their profane lust.
And it's not that the average horse smell worse than a donkey, their ass is just closer to most people's nose.
Ok, so I think we've settled the theological debate around the relative size of of horse cock vs. donkey cock.
What about the relative quantity of their emissions?
RIP to my browser history. It looks like it scales with size but donkeys on average are 100-200 mL and horses are more in the 200-400mL. So, you know, up to a can of soda worth worth…
Your service to the internet is mildly appreciated!
I just read the whole chapter. It's all just ancient porn. But there's a plot hole... So Oholah and Oholibah (the one that liked donkey dick) were sisters, both prostitutes. Oholah is raped and killed by Assyrians. But then later Oholah makes an appearance in the bondage gang bang scene with the drunkards from the desert? WTF, 50 shades of grey is better written that this. Well maybe that's going too far, but still this is badly written porn.
But I liked this part:
14 “But she carried her prostitution still further. She saw men portrayed on a wall, figures of Chaldeans portrayed in red, 15 with belts around their waists and flowing turbans on their heads; all of them looked like Babylonian chariot officers, natives of Chaldea. 16 As soon as she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.

Has someone started reading the other source books? They can't be perfectly clean either.
Spez may be a hurensohn but at least Reddit users still have their heads screwed tight.
