I'll agree that Bush has nothing to do with this. These kinds of people have been around forever. Ever since books came around, somebody has been burning them.

I went to a rural southern public high school that still has bible classes to this day, and we performed all manner of sinful plays, Plaza Suite, Aresenic and Old Lace...

I think this is a very bad trend. It's much more than just a school deciding to ban a couple plays, in the case of the Crucible, it's denying students an education in a chapter of our nation's in history - in which religious zealots ran wild and murdered on the testimony of bratty girls. Banning plays tells them that the expressions and speech within the plays are evil.
