A chinese language website has launched attacking the Bible saying that its contents are indecent because it references incest, rape, cannibalism, violence and other unhappy matters.

Some of the quotes: “Passages in the Bible not only advocate incest, but they also aim to rationalise incest and present it as normal”

The goal is to get the TV and Entertainment Licensing Authority to reclassify the Bible as indecent, thereby reducing it’s distribution to under 18’s of course and so far 208 complaints have been received in support of this claim. Should they succeed in giving the Bible a rating it will be treated in the same category as pornography and extreme bloody violence.

I don’t have a particular commentary on this except that religion has had a history of being offensive to some and has often resulted in extreme violence and it is always a hot and controversial topic.
