If they would only translate "eternal", "everlasting" etc, and "hell" the right way. But noooooo! Cant have that. It's a great tool for controlling people, keeping them in line.

They need to play silly little PC games with gender issues that aren't issues at all.

I mean any book with all that sex, incest, bestiality and death deserves as much warning as say a Nine Inch Nails recording.
