Jailed from God

Not too sure, but this seems like a bad idea.

"The Bureau of Prisons [has] order[ed] to chaplains to do a major purge of religious materials in libraries that inmates may use. It’s to ensure there is nothing that can be used to give them skills for violence or terrorism or spur them to hateful thoughts. . . The 'Standardized Chapel Library Project,' make[s] sure there is no access to whatever might 'discriminate, disparage, advocate violence or radicalize.'"

Ok, so political and religious unrest in prison = Bad. But it seems that this effort is designed to be discriminatory toward one specific religion in favor of another, though I can't really put my finger on which ones these are. . .
