"What Fundamentalists Need for Their Salvation" by David James Duncan

     This essay is one of my favorites that we have read so far. The fact that the author, David james Duncan, is a religious man, but is able to understand the absurdity of censorship, as well as many other absurdities, gives me hope that there can be some normal Christians in this world. I am a very big fan of Duncan's writing style, too. His tone and syntax make this piece very enjoyable to red, and even though it is sectioned off into different chapters, it all flows very nicely. From the beginning, where Duncan told of his experience visiting the school where the parents destroyed his book with excessive censorship, I could tell that Duncan was being very real, and basically told it how it was. This was definitely a good choice.
