Every once in a while there are news items so shocking that once you hear about them you're not sure how to react. Such is the case in Evansville, Indiana and Cookeville, Tennessee where local libraries are hosting Drag Queen Story Hours. This is where men who dress as flamboyant women will be coming in and reading books to young children. Needless to say, it’s created a lot of controversy in both cities. So how would you react? Some believe this just another step in the direction of tolerance. Others believe this is another step in the direction of mainstreaming immorality in a society that is rejecting moral boundaries. In either case, what's clear is that these cities are at a crossroads regarding their moral standards and what they'll allow their children to be exposed to.
