Lets Burn The Holy Koran for 09/11

[JayJ79]

The Koran is full of shit. It makes an excellent fire starter.

no more so than the bible. just about any piece of news media. and political ads.

so no one should have any trouble finding kindling.

[JayJ79]

book burning in general is dumb.

sure, waaaay back when, when books were all handwritten and such, it might have been an effective tactic.
but ever since the invention of the printing press (much less, computers), all it does is add to air pollution/CO2 and hasten deforestation.

what gets me is the extra stupidity in the fact that the group organizing this calls themselves the "Dove Center for World Outreach". Evidently their "world outreach" consists of intentionally trying to piss off a large part of the world, and provoke further war.

You're right, but you all are delusional and none of you "good christians' have the balls to call out the assholes amongst your ranks like the catholics or mormons or fundamentalists.

All this is going to do is motivate Muslims to hate America who wouldn't other wise have a reason to hate us. It's a stupid publicity stunt and the exact opposite of what a church should be doing. Stupid Protestants.

From what I have read and seen on this church, it pretty much looks like a one man operation. Cash in now. As of 9/12 he will be yesterdays news, at least until he's beheaded.

The Vatican today denounced as "outrageous and grave" plans by a Florida church to burn copies of the Quran on 9/11.

The Vatican's Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue said such violence "cannot be counteracted by an outrageous and grave gesture against a book considered sacred by a religious community," the Associated Press reports.

An interfaith summit of Christian, Jewish and Muslim religious leaders today responded to plans by a Florida church to burn Qurans on 9/11 by condemning “outright bigotry” that they said undermined religious freedom in America.

http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/LI09Ak02.html

Leaders of some three dozen mainstream United States religious denominations on Tuesday condemned what many commentators have called a rising tide of Islamophobia touched off by the recent controversy over the construction of a Muslim community center in Lower Manhattan, two blocks from the site of the twin World Trade Center towers destroyed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The U.S. of A. - we're still intolerant of other people's culture, we just don't chop your head off for it.

Here's a news flash, kalm: It's OK to be intolerant of child molestation, violent official homophobia, slavery, mass murder, etc.

[Gil Dobie]

I mean what type of church is this?? This gives Christians a very bad name. I wonder what would Jesus Do on this matter? I want to hear how people will makes excuses for this action.

I agree, it does look bad. However, I do support the right for idiots to hate as much as I support freedom of religion. It''s just sad people are motivated to do this kind of stuff...what a waste of time and effort. The real shame is that this group could be doing so much more "good" than this nonsense.

Agree with you, don't support what they are doing, but support their freedom do it.

Good example of a loving atheist.

[mainejeff]

I have to say that I'm pretty surprised at the amount of posters on here that want to bow down to the Muslims. F*CK THEM! If they are going to "destroy America" because some dipsh*t is burning the Koran then they are going to attempt to destroy us with or without this guy's escapade. I'm so effin sick of religious NUTS on all sides......THEY CAN ALL GO STRAIGHT TO HELL (or more likely just die and turn into dust).

This attitude is the reason why you guys lose all the discussions ... You show no respect for the outlook of others ...

[bluehenbillk]

The liberal press is having a field day with this crap, where are they when American flags are burned on our soil??

[GannonFan]

Some whack job with a do-it-yourself-church with something like 50 followers? Seriously, why do we even pay attention to this? You would think D1B would be a world-wide celebrity at this point if we paid this kind of attention to his whacked up ramblings. How do we pick out which whacko to pay this kind of attention to? Is there a whacko lottery that draws names like this guy's out of a hat each week so that we can focus on what whacky thing they do?

Certainly one of the drawbacks of the age of the Internet and all-information-all-the-time - no one would ever have heard of this guy and all the whacky things he does. How this really affects anyone other than him and his 50 followers is amazing.

DIB has a bigger following.

[mrklean]

Many Christians in America are no different than the so called Muslims in the Middle East. Both groups become very violent and hateful when they disagree with a different religious group. And lastly, what about love thy Neighbor. This commandment was given from Jesus to the people. Yeah. W.W.J.D?

Maybe in your world Joe.

You avoid discussion. I'm still waiting for responses from you 6 deep in several threads.

What are you afraid of? You're the smartest person in the world.

He considers himself a good christian, and according to the bible, he is.



You can go fuck yourself Gannondork. Everything I say about christianity and the horrible catholic church is a fact.

Gannon never did anything to you, or showed any hatred. Seems kind of harsh coming from a loving atheist.
