Prison Libraries Yank Christian Titles:Efforts to rid libraries of radical Islam spill over into other faiths.

Prison chaplains have been ordered to clear their library shelves of hundreds of religious and Christian books that used to be readily available to inmates. Federal officials say they are concerned that prisons are becoming a breeding ground for Islamic terrorists,but Christian books are also being tossed.There are still more than 200 Christian titles available, but many others, including works by early church fathers, have been removed. Many Jewish titles were also removed, and the list is expected to be expanded in October.Mark Early, president of Prison Fellowship, said the tactic is like “swatting a fly with a sledgehammer.”“The sad part is they are requiring chaplains to throw out and get rid of all of the other books," he told Family News in Focus."That’s a really overly broad approach for dealing with a few instances of extremist literature.”Gary McCaleb, senior counsel with the Alliance Defense Fund, called it a classic bureaucratic solution. "If the Bureau of Prisons is going to attack all religions based on one religion attacking the United States or elements of that religion attacking us, it’s just nonsense,” he said. "These guys desperately need these things.”
