I read it for what it was, a page-turner novel.

A few years ago, the Pope didn't exactly ban the DaVinci code, but he
strongly urged the Catholic community not to read it, or at the very least,
to take it with a grane of salt.

I read a couple years a go the book Peyton Place. That was written in the
fifties and banned.

I read it and thought, it wouldn't be banned today.

Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut was banned by my school district when I
was 
in high school way back in the early 1970s.  That one went to federal court
and 
it made national headlines back then.
