Ban Perverse Books, Except This One

What do you get when you combine artificial intelligence with human stupidity is one of those questions which gets asked much but luckily we have an answer i the shape of the Iowa Senators who have passed  law which requires school libraries to remove all books: 'With descriptions or depictions of a sex act' and are using ChatGPT to discover them lurking on the dusty shelves.
The lawmakers have put in a proviso though,all books are to checked for 'very explicit, perverse or pornographic descriptions' but not the Bible, that's okay because they say they know what they are dealing with with sex acts in that particular book where there are many references to 'coming in unto' but once you get past the flowery language, the Bible has some nasty, nasty stories.
In Genesis 19:30-36, Lot has drunken sex in a cave with his Daughters who say ',,,there is no man in the earth to come in unto us...Come, let us make father drink wine, and we will lie with him' which they did, twice which begs the question just how much wine did they give him each time to became oblivious to the fact that he was having sex with his daughters ... twice?
There are all sorts of shenanigans in Genesis 29: 21-28 where Jacob goes in unto a couple of sisters and a maid and then offers the 'oh no, i come in unto the wrong sister' excuse so maybe he should have stayed in and read Judah 38:8-10 where Onan 'raises his seed to his brothers wife' but knowing that 'the seed should not be his', when he went in unto his sister in law and at the big moment, 'spilled it onto the ground' which doesn't really make the family gatherings any less awkward.
The Bible does like a tale of people accidentally having sex with the wrong person and we have another one in Genesis. 38:15-16 where Judah uses his best chat up line of 'Pray thee, let me come in unto thee' on a woman who turns out to be his daughter in law but Solomon in Genesis 1:30 to 8:10 is described as laying with his concubine 'all night between my breasts' which are like 'two young roes that are twins' and when he put his hand by the hole of the door (???), her bowels moved for him. Then his conquests breast go on to be described as both 'a cluster of grapes' and 'towers' but at least her bowels movement was covered in more details.  
As you may have noticed, most of the sexy stuff is in Genesis and that's where we find the sons of God (who were giants by the way) 'came in unto the daughters of men and they bore children' and i'm no doctor but giants coming unto daughters means in 9 months giant babies which means giving birth may have smarted  a bit in Biblical times.
There is also a bit in Deuteronomy where the question of: 'What shalt thou do with asses?' and then answers its own question by saying thou should 'lift them up again' but no plowing else the ass shall be: 'violently taken away' but i assume they mean the Donkey variety but just to be sure leave the ass plowing to another day Christians just to be on the safe side.
