    I think they are terrified of cp, which is fair enough. And truly illegal stuff.

But it's the written word. Lolita features sex with a child. There's nothing illegal about that. Plenty of great books have rape and other distasteful themes in them. The Fountainhead features a rape in a positive light. The ability to explore taboo or distasteful themes is one of the assets of literature.

It would be one thing to assign a content rating to books, but refusing to publish them based on their moral content is pathetic.

Sorry to threadjack your post.
