I cant even read the books that supposedly condemn it. Cant stomach it.

Yes, people will crucify me for this but Stephen King tends to do what you described.

Reply to Book choosing anxiety by sburg88
I got a list, I add books whenever they come to my attention and have something interesting to offer. I add titles even when I am not actively looking for books. I never run out this way.

Well, I get your points, and every sentence could be made into an essay. And they have been discussed vastly, my argument is that there are valid points on both sides, this dialogue has been brought up many times, dialectics will take place and a middle ground will be either enforced or agreed. Intellectualism and pragmatism are valid, necessary and full of friction.

This is a complex topic, reading extends beyond books. And even then a lot of great people achieved and achieve immeasurable things without reading a whole lot.

No one is suggesting censorship.
