The Siesatian Govenment has recently passed a law, allowing publishing and distribution corporations more leniancy in what they file religious articles as. This comes as an unsuprising move by the government, who has recently announced such laws to become more common.

Stores such as Nova Distributers and Paradoxx Entertainment applaud this move by the government.
"We feel that devoting a special space to works of fiction is a waste of time and money, not to mention valuable space. We have works such as '80,000 Lightyears from Home' and 'Cretacious Park' but why should they get special treatment?" Says CEO of Nova Inc (Ticker NOVA), Clyde Brokehowser.

However, Paradoxx Entertainment (Ticker PEI) CEO felt more strongly towards the subject.
"P.E. Inc has completely stopped ordering them, over the past few years, our company has made no money on religious texts, we have put out an order to cancel all stock in them."
Paradoxx incorperated has now opened a larger Historical section, now that the religious section has been removed. Schools are overjoyed, as are avid readers.
Laurie, a Junior in New Cleyra Highschool commented.
"Finally, I love history, and I can't wait for the new selection to hit my area."

So far, the national conscensus is, 94% Support the law, 4 % Protest it, and 2 % are undecided. (4-6% Margin of error)

Bump

Hmm. I applaud.

OOC: Yippy ki ay Mo F*****

We know that the koran is fiction, but we urge you to place the bible under non fiction.

Hmm...some of the religious works contain facts, though. perhaps you could put the religious bits under fiction and distill the facts into a purified book for use in informing people?

Indeed, but that is up to the publishing companies/distributers
