How the hell did they miss the Bible?! It's a stretch to say Kapital or the Manifesto "caused" communism or likewise for Mein Kampf and the holocaust, but it's no more of a stretch to link the Bible to the inquisition or the German or American witch hunts.
Someone explain to me why Ralph Naders book was on this list? Monk? Tal? Anyone? I can't think of any reason, valid or silly, that makes sense.

Re: Pssst... take a look at the topic title.
Haha ok I'm stupid. The question about Nader's book still stands.
