Libraries Ban 16-Year Old For Proselytizing Patrons

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS

Yesterday's Columbus, Georgia Ledger-Enquirer reports that the Chattahoochee Valley (GA) library system has told a 16-year old boy that he is banned from all the system's libraries for six months because his proselytizing of library patrons is disruptive to conducting library business. Patrons complained about being approached by Caleb Hanson to repeatedly ask them about their religious faith and to offer biblical advice. Caleb ignored several warnings to stop. A letter (full text) sent to the boy's parents from the North Columbus (GA) library says that if he returns sooner than that to the libraries, this will constitute criminal trespass. Caleb is home schooled. His mother said that last year he "had a real encounter with the Lord" and now wants to witness for the Lord.
