Burning the Koran

[sokinwet]

Aint religion great?
I'm all for "burning" it...and all the other "books" and the tax breaks that go with em.
And Nebe's stash too...I'll even help with that!

they burned Beatle records and memorabilia after Lennon proclaimed they were more popular than Jesus.

maybe Islam thinks it more popular than Jesus too!

This is interesting and as usual I view this differently than most.

No you don't....that's pretty much how I see it.....

Actually....it is. I'm pretty sure there are more Muslims than Christians in the world

Smart to do? NOT!!


We allow the burning of the flag, what could possibly be more offensive than that?

If we ban the Koran burning we set a precedent to ban any and all freedoms of speech.

It's just plain wrong.

We want our feelings respected on the building of the Mosque
near the 16 acres of the hallowed 9/11 ground and need to
respect their Koran.

Again a very small radical group gives a bad name to the larger.

me too...

However I have no problem with Petrus et al stating the obvious, either.

The church reminds me of the bible literalists in WV/KY area. scary group that doesn't represent all Christians...
