Offending content included “wronged spirits and violent ghosts, monsters, demons, and other inhuman portrayals, strange and supernatural storytelling for the sole purpose of seeking terror and horror,” the administration said.

Ironically, the current scientific evidence suggests that banning godlessness would be justified as harmful to one’s psychological health.
