Setting the Record Straight - Shipwrecked with Robinson Crusoe

Surprise ! One of the most popular novels of all time has been  heavily censored in most modern editions, not of four letter words, but of one three letter word.  Hundreds of reverent references to God have been deleted as well as the  three-thousand-word 3000 word island conversion narrative of Crusoe.  Robinson Crusoe turns out to be even more dramatic in the original complete version. However, again contemporary culture has demonstrated its allergy to sacred themes and has to scissor them out of a masterpiece.
