If the Bible is too violent for schools, so is history

Dear Editor:

This letter is in reply to the letters in the Oct. 5, 2023, paper from two women who want to remove violence and sex from the school library by getting rid of the Christian Bible.

I'll skip the sex part because in this degenerate world, anything goes, but violence, which is a physical force used to injure, damage or destroy, I've got this to say: Get rid of world history. Millions have been killed to end wars; look at many cities in the U.S., where it's not safe to walk the streets; look at Israel today. The world we live in is violent and always has been and always will be.

I have lived through the Second World War and was involved in the Korean police action, but the most violent that has happened in my lifetime is the death of 63.6 million babies. Violence is being ripped out of a would-be mother's womb and thrown into the trash. Put a book in the library that tells the students that abortion isn't birth control, it's murder, and the next child to be aborted may be the person sent here to cure cancer.
