Would you consider me disrespectful if I did not dispose of a book in a certain
manner? I mean where do you draw the line? Scientology considers itself a
religion. Do we ask each and every sect what we should do and follow their rules.
One person wrote me and said a group of Jews requires than any mention of God in
print be buried when disposed of. An they, because they most likely know it is a
ridiculous rule, never write God, but instead write G_d. Look, I will treat
religious books in the same way I treat other books. I mean, if other people have
the time to take books to Mosques and churches fine, but I would rather work with
my students and attend to my job, which is not to follow every superstitious
religious dictate.
