Scholastic put out a book club list targeted for Christian Schools. One of the books on the list is Teen answers from God. What upset the group that is promoting the boycott is that the book did not adhere to what they felt were Biblical truths. I suppose they have a right to their concern, but voicing them in a nicely written letter seems to be more appropriate than going on the radio and calling for a complete boycott. I consider myself a Christian and I am embarrassed and tired of knee jerk reactions by Christian fundamentalists that do nothing but make people angry. Everyone has a right to their opinion but I think they would be happy to have scholastic try to accommodate Christian Schools and perhaps work with them, instead of calling for a boycott. Just my two cents. Johnnie Frisbie Asst.
