Religion in US vs Canada hotels

[survivor999]

Here is what I found in one of my drawers at a Hyatt in Canada:



In the US I only get the book on the right. Why?

1. Everyone steals the useful one?

Just a thought.

3. Ahahahah! Good one!

2. Yeah, this stuff needs to simmer down now

It's out of hand in Taliban land.

4. sometimes you get the Book of Mormon

in Marriot hotels (a chain I happen to like overall)

Once on a business trip I had a bad cold and was feeling too miserable to get out of bed, so I actually read the Gideon Bible since it was the only thing at hand. There's a lot of weird stuff in it.

ETA: I've never seen religious stuff in hotel rooms abroad.

5. There are groups that pass out the Gideons Bible for free in the US

Apparently there is a Buddhist group that is similar in Canada! I think groups of many types ought to pass out free books to hotel rooms; I'd make sure there's a copy of Tiptree's Ten Thousand Light-Years From Home in every Super 8 room in the country, if I could.

6. Yet you have to pay Ten Bucks for the in-room porn.

Where's the fairness in that?
