Censorship and Spiritual Education.

Moffett, James

English Education, v21 n2 p70-87 May 1989

Examines the 1974 case of fundamentalist censorship in Kanawha County, West Virginia, and responds to fundamentalist's objections to the disputed books. Suggests that the solution to censorship may lead to the development of "spiritual" education, an education of expanded consciousness based on pluralism. (MM)
