I also find that you're quite off base in your assesment of what most Catholics do and don't understand with respect to their religion. Trust me on that one. :wink:
No doubt.
The left in Canada is full of book burners and they know it.

Isn't Finder a card carring member of the NDP?
Yup, and the NDP is full of the religous left as well, which get preachy on some issues. Also you are right there are some in the NDP who are ultra political correct. But generally I don't think anyone in the NDP could really be considered a book burner. I;m sure however many would think books such as mein kampf are distaistful. But many on the centre left, left and fringe left actually read right wing books to understand these people better.
Besides I don't know what being a Democrat, Chrsitian or whatever has to do with this. I'm a Libertarian formost and I think banning almost anything is wrong. And banning things such as books of fantasy like the Di Vanci Code or Harry Potter is some of the worst things you can do. I'd hate to see other books and movies on the list of banned books which these counties hold.
Also The Vatican has a long history of banning books to this day there list is still used. For those of you who are catholic and don't know which books you have already read which the Vatican says is a sin to read, here google it under
Librorum Prohibitorum. You will find all the good books historic and thought provoking there.
