Sociologists are dangerous!?!

A bunch of well-respected conservatives (probably in the US) were asked by an online conservative magazine to write down what books are the most dangerous to humanity, and they then voted on the compiled list.

The list of the most dangerous books ever published should make sociologists everywhere feel rather targeted - the top 10 list includes works from Auguste Comte, the acknowledged father of sociology and Karl Marx, the obvious founder of the conflict approach.

Reading through the rest of the list, I know I'm feeling rather racy by their standards, as I've read at least large excerpts from approximately 80% of the list.
