 | If I Did It

|
 | The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
Buy used from: $0.01 I still don't get the major hate over this book. Jesus and Mary have kids. Wow, major revelation. Sometimes I wonder why the Church is so scared of both sex and viewing Jesus as a normal man.
|
 | Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1) by J. K. Rowling
Buy new: $17.96 / Used from: $6.98 The beginning of a series most Christian groups claim is driven to indoctrinate their children in the "dark" ways of the occult. Wow, I guess the fact kids actually want to read because of this series is also a bad thing. Education and religion. Bad mix.
|
 | His Dark Materials Trilogy (The Golden Compass; The Subtle Knife; The Amber Spyglass) by Philip Pullman
Buy new: $15.30 / Used from: $9.66 Bad movie aside, most Christian groups hate this series for its veiled attacks on religion. Whatever happened to trying to help your fellow man? Most Christians seem far too obsessed with burning books. Is this where all the Nazis disappeared to after WWII? The Christian movement?

 | Hitler's Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust by Daniel Jonah Goldhagen
