One of my somewhat distant relations is still very upset that the local library still has fantasy books and allows children (her's are 13 and 16) to borrow them. Her latest polemic was about how her children having read Patricia C. Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles caused them to turn away from the church. The library encouraged them by allowing them to borrow ebooks so she did not realize what they were reading in time.
It didn't help when the older child quoted “That God is in truth the sort of bloodthirsty paranoid who would rend to bits forty-two children for the crime of sassing one of his priests.” and asked her to justify her "God is love" mantra.
