Church burns rare porn

Anyone who'd burn unique works of art or science that have no other known copies should be assessed for fascist tendencies.

If a person would incinerate the only known copies of porn movies, do you really think they wouldn't do the same to scientific treatises, rare music recordings, or other works?

A church in Jacksonville, Florida, scattered history to the wind on Sunday when it conducted a bonfire to destroy pornographic movies from 30 years ago that it found at a drive-in theater it had purchased. No copies of the locally produced antique porn are known to remain.

I'd be really wary of this particular church. To destroy art smacks of fascism. One of the first things Hitler did when he took power was have artistic and scientific works burned.

Art expresses and inspires. Every time you destroy art, you could be setting back humanity by years.

  1. What a shame. Fundies are close to being fascists.
