According to the News the Bureau declined the application and the protesters have rallied up the petition to a point where it is now almost 3,000 petitions to have the Bible rated for Violence.

I hope they don’t succeed, while I agree that there is a degree of hypocrisy involved when people decide to censor one subject vs. another but we should strive towards as little censorship as possible. Violence is present in many important books of our past and to shelter it is to foster ignorance and more suffering in the end.
