Thanks Matthew for sharing this article. I agree with you on general term, you make some very good points. You focus on the impossibility of “protecting” younger minds from banned books, and I really think you have some solid logic.

But how about books meant for adults? Like a book about how to molest a child? Do you think books that convince adults of evil behavior should be allowed to proliferate.

Here is an article about that:

I understand that you have better things to do than to respond to me. So if you don’t, no worries. I really did enjoy your article and I do think you have a solid case.

Thank you again. And keep writing.
