Finding this book, and only this book, in every hotel room is an example of Christian privilege. Nobody asks you which book you'd like when you check-in. They've made that decision for you. They've provided you with "the good book."

I thought they get placed by the Gideons? It's even a plot point in the original Mission Impossible movie.

That is correct. But why do the Gideons get to place their book and Muslims do not?

I would assume the muslims haven't tried. It's weird that these Gideon creatures do

They get given to hotels by the Gideon’s. The hotel staff usually are the ones to place them.

Thanks for clearing up my misconception. This makes sense.

They are. This is misinformation.

It's not misinformation. The Gideons are a decidedly Christian organization.
