The thing is, every book has a message in it. The Bible. The Scarlet Letter. The Jungle. Atlas Shrugged. To Kill a Mockingbird. The Iliad/Odyssey. Just because it's not a message people can't agree on, doesn't mean we shouldn't read it.
The problem, such as what OP is saying, is when only ONE type of message is pushed forward. We need students to be able to critically think (which isn't being taught much anymore) when reading a piece. WHY is it written this way? WHY does this tie into the message? WHAT is the message? Is the message valid? Why was this book written at that specific point in time? And so on and so forth.
Exactly, reading occult material isn't going to turn you into a demon worshiper. Reading only those types of material will give you a fucked view of reality. That is what the schools do is gloss over the pertinent information while hammering down on the idiosyncrasies then test your knowledge on the noise.
Lol. You think they read whole books. The teachers just put libtard articles in front of them about electoral college, climate change, etc. for them to answer questions on. It’s terrible!
they should let you read books that don't have messages imbedded in them
