1. She has openly spoke out in favor of banning gay marriage. I assume it's because of religious reasons. Here's one article (OF MANY)

2. I tend to think the Wasilla incident was covered up. The librarian had more to say on the issue but was hushed. However, I'll give this one to you and say she's NOT in favor of censorship.
3. I am NOT for the banning of teaching alternate theories in the classroom. And I would not be in favor of burning books that are pro-creationism. I do not like any form of censorship. But I do believe in science. Science produces facts - some indubitable, some not. I believe that evolution is scientific FACT. So to allow alternate theories to be taught is simply illogical. And where does it end? Not to fall down the slippery slope, but what theories do we allow? Believing that the earth is 6,000 years old is quite unorthodox. So do we allow other unorthodox theories? When a teacher gets to the section on the creation of earth and man, does (s)he need to cover evolution, creationism, and the whole gamut of other theories? Some believe aliens created the earth - we have to allow it. Some think that the earth is a figment of our imagination - we have to allow it. Some think the earth is flat - we have to allow it. I mean, come on....
It is a fact that the earth is older than 6,000 years. We cannot allow false theories to be taught in the classroom when we know something as fact. And I know we're entering into an argument of definition - what is fact? But I think some areas are clearly safe. We know the earth is round. Should we also teach that it's flat? Wouldn't that be crazy? I personally think it's crazy to believe that the earth is 6,000 years old and do not want my children being taught that it is simply to please religious zealouts. That's my problem with Palin. I have no problem with the fact that she believes it. That's fine and dandy - more power to her. But to force your incorrect theory on my children because of your religion? That's insane. Absolutely insane.
So tell me, do you believe the earth is 6,000 years old? If you do, it explains everything you say. If not, then why do you want it taught to your kids? How much relativity do we allow in our schools? With extreme relativity, there are no facts. Do you want this? I truly do not understand how it wound benefit. With morality and social issues, any theory is fair game, but with science and mathematics?????
