Interesting points you make there. Though I've never read the book, I know that it talks about the mysterious "Danites." As a Mormon, I'm not a fan of the portrayal. I'm surprised and appreciative of your defense of its removal. I myself am not into "censorship," but if an appropriate body of leadership debates decides that a book is too offensive (such as a school board and public debate), they should not provide the book for their students, nor require it for reading. However, if the student arrives at school with a purchased book, there is no reason to stop him/her from reading it.
