I'm not trying to be confrontational here, I'm honestly asking whether or not you truly believe that most hotel chains would put a copy of the Quran or any other religious book in every room if a group volunteered to pay for it?

Because I just don't think they would. And it would be interesting if some group would test this, because it would open a huge can of worms regarding the longstanding practice of allowing the Gideons to place a bible in hotel rooms across the country.

This is a perfect illustration of why the original post in this thread really impacted me. I don't give those bibles in the top drawer of hotel nightstands a second thought. But I never really thought about it from the perspective of an atheist - it is just one of many daily reminders that they are not the "norm" or part of the mainstream.
