ExCUSE me? Do mine eyes decieve me? People want BOOKS rated?!

While I can kind of understand it in visual/motion maybe even in audio media, the concept of suggesting age limits for BOOKS is blatantly ridiculous. Considering books are the most basic form of media around and literacy is fundamental to pretty much any educational foundation, the idea of trying to impose artificial limits on who can and can't read books is patently INSANE.

The only way this could have possibly been amusing would have been to watch people foaming at the mouth as the Bible got the equivalent of an R-rating, except you KNOW people would exempt the Bible from any sort of rating.

This is one of the reasons I'm so irritated about people trying to tighten video game ratings. Books aren't rated, and introducing ratings is a de facto ban on a lot of stuff. An AO rating could kill a title because places will refuse to carry them.
