A funny example is the Apocalypse of Peter, which was cut from the Bible because priests felt uncomfortable reading it in church. If it was still in there, it would give fundamentalists a lot of gunpowder in their attempts to politisize religion, since it describes exactly how gays and women who have abortions are treated in hell.

If anybody wants to check it out, keep in mind that there are two texts with the same name, so if you can't find anything about gay people being thrown off cliffs all day you've got the wrong one.
