Should books that encourage honor killings be banned?
Or should there just be a warning about the harmfulness, like with cigarettes?
"But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house"
-- Deuteronmy 22:20-21
@Pies; Like the "Explicit lyrics" labels? Yes... perhaps we could form a concerned parents' organization...
@MO; Now, now, it says that if the guy who accuses her is found to be lying, then he gets a monetary fine. Fair IS fair*
*at least by religion standards (which obviously are not up to snuff with the rest of us, but hey..)

Just the women of course. Sons of the house can spread their seed willy-nilly.

Why don't you ask about Islamic honour killings? where it is always the woman's fault and her testimony doesn't count.
There are no Jews of Christians that do honour killings. The text from Deut was under the OT Theocracy, and doesn't apply to us today. So instead of knocking the Bible you'd better look elsewhere.

no book burning, no book censorship.....not even crappy manifestos about bomb building.....we should however be cautious about these types of "dangerous" books....warning labels indeed, just like the record industry, ratings should be included.....
PS: precisely.....an advocacy group.....we must lobby congress
