   Debate over sexual material in Wyoming   
   libraries is heating up… and getting   
   awkward   
   Aug 16   
      
   Rev. Dan Odell wore his clerical collar   
   to address lawmakers on the Joint   
   Judiciary Committee on Tuesday evening   
   in Casper.   
      
   The Methodist pastor wanted the committee   
   to know that if a bill to ban books   
   containing sexually-explicit material   
   from the children’s sections of Wyoming   
   libraries passed as currently written,   
   it could block minors from one book many   
   lawmakers might say is their favorite:   
   the Bible.   
      
   To illustrate his point, Odell read   
   aloud some of the religious text’s   
   more graphic passages, like this one   
   from the Book of Ezekiel:   
      
   “She lusted after her lovers, whose   
   genitals were like those of donkeys   
   and whose emission was like that of   
   horses,” Odell read.   
      
   That passage was one of five containing   
   what Odell called “frank descriptions   
   of sexual acts,” that he read or cited   
   for the committee. The reverend had   
   more examples, he told lawmakers, than   
   his allotted time for public comment   
   on the bill would permit.
