Attack of the Theocrats!
Actually, I think that removing the introduction will probably result n the following.
1: Make the physical hardback book itself structurally weak and probably not worth giving out.
2. The missing pages will simply create an impression of censorship and with that a desire to read the original introduction, but will also add grist to the fallacious ideas of Ben Stein that creationists are being censored.
So, in short, I think the proposal above concerning removing the introduction is a bad idea.
