Drama as school bans Bible for Condemning sex

Students are not allowed to use the Bible until they are in high school at the Davis School, which is located in north of Salt Lake City.

In order to Republican legislation to restrict access to literature containing references to the LGBT community or gender identity has resulted in a wave of book bans in schools.

The Davis School District, which is second largest in the state with nearly 74,000 children, has banned the Bible after receiving petition to ban the holy book due to its descriptions of “sex and violence.

Within the first five months of the law being in place, parents filed over 250 complaints petitioning for certain books to be removed from schools.

The petition read, “Utah Parents United left off one of the most s+x-ridden books around: The Bible. You’ll no doubt find that the Bible has ‘no serious values for minors’ because it’s pornographic by our new definition.”

This complaint followed the passing of Utah’s “Sensitive Materials in Schools” law enacted in May which “prohibits certain sensitive instructional materials” if they contain “explicit s+xual aro¥sal, stimulation, mast¥rb@tion, int£rcourse, sod@my or f%ndling.”

Davis School has also been asked to ban the Book of Mormon, a sacred text of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
