Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was banned because... it implied that animals were at the same intelligence level as human beings? Ever heard of imagination? Symbolism? No? Do these people also think animals should have no rights?

Whoever banned The Diary of Anne Frank must have been racist, anti-Semitic and in denial that the Holocaust ever happened. Sickening.

Well, I'm glad they finally took Harry Potter off the list. (It was once on for encouraging witchcraft, which is ridiculous on all levels.)

Uncle Tom's Cabin is banned for being anti-slavery? So wait, are they implying that slavery is good? Whatever happened to all people being equal no matter what their skin colour is, let alone Freedom of Speech?

Those are the only books that I actually know of, but the majority of this list is pretty ridiculous.

XDRoseLuvsHP, I think you've taken a lot of this out of context. If you look at the date Uncle Tom's Cabin was written and when it was banned (note: it is NOT banned anymore). Here's the whole text from wikipedia on this book:

Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) Harriet Beecher Stowe Novel Banned in the Southern United States during the Civil War due to its anti-slavery content. In 1852, Uncle Tom's Cabin was banned in Russia under the reign of Nicholas I due to the idea of equality it presented, and for its "undermining religious ideals."[13]

But other than that, I agree completely. A lot of these bans are ridiculous.
