I cannot wait for the day this Iowa school district actually reads the Bible (or the AI brings it up) and has to ban it for that verse(s):
No getting around the fact that the verse is pretty sexual since the majority of people probably will immediately assume it's about a woman wanting sex. I cannot say whether it is or not, but I know I immediately jump to that conclusion.
Religious books are specifically excluded, they did their homework.
It happened in Utah, though: https://www.iowapublicradio.org/news-from-npr/2023-06-02/a-utah-school-district-has-removed-the-bible-from-some-schools-shelves
Now the Satanists have to declare the Kama sutra and other erotica as sacred books to circumvent this ban.
Damn. Didn't expect this from Utah of all places, even if it's just a single school district.
