		<description>I stay in cheap hotels when I travel, and about half the time there is a bible in the nightstand drawer.  So far, I have not been brave enough to throw it away or take it with me to destroy later.  But I&#039;m thinking about doing it in the future.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In my opinion hotels and motels should not put any kind of religious material in the rooms.  Books and magazines of all sorts can be available in the lobby for people if they want to read them, but they should not be in the rooms.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I do try to destroy any Mormon or Jehovah&#039;s Witness stuff I find in hotels or in laundromats. I accept gifts of their books and throw them away as quickly as possible.  If I have time, I tear out the pages and recycle the paper.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I believe that rational people have a duty to eliminate religious stuff whenever they can, so other people can&#039;t read it.  (I live in an apartment house for seniors, and we have a &quot;free book&quot; table.  I throw away the bibles and religious pamplets,  and somebody else destroyed the copies of &quot;Free Inquiry&quot; I put on the table.) </description>

		<description>I do thow them in the trash.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When at the doctors or dentists, I will take any religious material and put it on the top shelf in back of other material.  This material always seems to find itself where children can easily get to it.  Many times, they are cartoon which really irks me, with the cute little sheep and little kids on the cover.&lt;br /&gt;

		<description>Bibles in hotels or any other public places are just asking for warning labels. Their presence at the doctor&#039;s office bothers me far more than in hotels.</description>

		<description>Bibles or &quot;intimacy kits&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Given that hotels, motels, etc. are mostly bedrooms, I suspect that more folks go there for intinacy than for bible study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intimacy kits gets my vote! </description>
