Ya'll are right. Burnin' books is childish.

Perhaps, we should follow their example. Stone or behead anyone caught with a quran.


"Their" example? Are all Islamic the same?

If you support quran burning, then you are following some unfortunate examples, seen on both sides - those who want to demonize everyone that belongs to 'the other side'.

WWJD


He would not object to someone burning a Koran or any other book that embraces sin and false Gods but also would not encourage it.


There is the act of burning a book, and then there is the intention and purpose behind the act. This quran burning is not simply a matter of someone disposing of a book they find useless or harmful - its a deliberately inflammatory act which will obviously encourage hostility and conflict between two massive sections of humanity. I can't speak for Jesus, but these kinds of motivations seem to me to be completely contrary to the wonderful lessons Jesus taught.

I can't speak for Jesus, but these kinds of motivations seem to me to be completely contrary to the wonderful lessons Jesus taught.





Of course there is conflict and hostility.Nearly everything Jesus did had conflict and hostility towards the people he was speaking against including Priests,Governors,unbelievers,sinners,other Jews,and even his 12 diciples.Jesus was nearly killed not once but several times by angry mobs because he was telling them they were leading Godless sinful lives.

Like I said earlier Jesus would not call for a book burning but he also would not stand there if there was people burning the Koran and speak against it.To speak against burning a Koran would be not only be showing support for the Koran but there would also have to be justification for sparing it from the fire.A similar instance would be for a follower of Jesus to carry tarot cards or something similar.Jesus would not say that worshiping other religions and other Gods is not a sin and that he would approve of the Koran because we know he would not.He would reject the Koran,it's teachings,and the people who believe in it.If someone wanted to destroy the Koran Jesus would just look at it as sin and rebellion being destroyed and would have no problem with it.



Do you think Jesus would object to a mass burning of tarot cards,Satanic bibles,voodoo objects,and other ungodly related items?Why is the Koran any different?The Koran goes against Gods word,speaks of false Gods,and speaks evil towards the Jews and calls for their destruction.If any book deserves to be destroyed in Gods or Jesus eyes the Koran would be at the top of the list.

Pointless and puerile.

It is a publicity stunt. We protect these nutjobs right to protest
under the 1st amendment. Fortunately plenty us as the opposition will
also have our say about how hateful, misguided and counterproductive
this book burning will be.

Meanwhile those watching around the world can reflect on the resilience
of our society to tolerate hateful voices and actions such as book
burning, KKK and Neo-Nazi marches and flag burning without it leading
to widespread rioting or killings. Let all reflect on our society and
the meaning of free speech.

Let everyone reflect on the difference between drawing cartoons about
someone else's sacred cow and mass murder.

There is a difference which is understood and respected right here in
the U.S.A. So let the book burners reconsider their ridiculous and
foolish act of hatred and intolerance. Let us all hope that the negative
publicity is enough to dissuade them.

Also let us show how we can combat this hate with derision and education.
Show the world that the correct response to hate is peaceful protest,
counterargument, persuasion and ultimately love but never violence.

Would not be a good idea, as it would incite more Muslim Radicalists towards terrorism. The Quaran is sacred to their religion and would only create more disregard for the US from around the world.

burning books will not turn anyone into a terrorist
if someone is inclined to mass murder then it will
not take a Koran fire to set them off...

it makes no sense to diss someone else's religion
let people observe the way they want as long as it
does not harm anyone....it does not matter what
rituals they observe. and freedom of religion is our way

What kind of spineless country has America become? Oh, I mean why is America becoming so "politically correct?" I hope they burn them all. Its a book of evil, my Iranian sister-in-law will admit that. Why is it ok for them to burn our flag? I guess that's ok huh? I suppose the 9-11 attacks were ok too huh? Stop being such jellyfish. Burn that piece of crap ragmag in the name of Nick Berg. Remember him? He was beheaded by the members of the "faith" most of you posters are defending.

Oh but I guess THAT was ok too huh?

im not sorry to say this but i agree with what was was said here
my point of view is about the same,we dont drag our people into a public place or put them on tv and cut there heads off so the whole world and family can see,yes there might be some good people somewhere in the middle east,but soon they will strap a bomb on there chest and kill your fellow americans who are fighting for your freedom,they are evil bastards of a race to teach there children that its ok to kill them selves,and tell them that there god wants them to and when they get to hell there wont be no 1000 vergins or whatever they beleave will be waiting for them.

Have you ever actually read the Koran? My Iranian male friend would disagree with you along with my multiple Muslim friends.

You do realize why they burn our flag, correct? The media here paint Muslims to be some extremists and over there Americans are painted in the media as attempting to exterminate them. Yes. It's amazing what the media can do.

Also, blaming the 1+ billion followers of Islam for the actions of 19 ... is a little ridiculous, don't you think? In a way, the people who flew into our towers on 9/11 succeeded a bit. They have caused civil unrest, they have stirred hate and religious intolerance, their actions led to legislation that eroded some of our rights, and they ruptured our economy. ... Didn't think people would fall into it so easily, though. My mistake.

Summation: Religion != Terrorism.




19? there were 19 suicide bombers YESTERDAY....


Can you provide the news article that discusses these "19 Suicide Bombers" from 9-7-2010? I mean, I read CNN for a good hour yesterday and did not come across anything related to such an event.
im sure there was more than 19 suicide bombers yesterday,maybe you should fly over there and see if you last a day before we see on cnn getting your american head chopped off?

A terrorist becomes a terrorist when they commit an act of terror, no? Then sufficiently inflammatory acts most definitely will turn non-terrorists into terrorists - in the sense that there are some who might be so predisposed, but simply haven't yet been moved to act.

I'm guessing that you'd rather label people according to their inclinations and character, rather than their actions...if so, I agree with you statement above.

Interpol, the Pentagon and others warned that such an act would provoke violent acts around the world by outraged Muslims.
