re: #976 Kosh’s Shadow

It depends on what is in the library.
The Koran, Mein Kapmf, and the Protocols, follwed by “Bomb Making According to the Koran”, and if they get older, “Wife Beating”, and “The Joy of Goats”

Sure, those are terrible books. But really, reading the wrong books is not the problem in that culture. Ignorance is.

If you’re trying to keep a population clamped down, confused and angry, literacy is your worst nightmare. A curious mind is a dangerous thing.
