Question: Should Church Burn Koran?

[It's On A Slab]

I wasn't responding to the OP. I answered your question with an opinion. I don't think this guy should do this but he has the right to do it. Where are all of the strict Constitionalist from the ground zero mosque threads sticking up for this guy's Constitional rights (not really a question for you JT)? It's really interesting to see, atleast for some, how Constitional rights are fought for pretty hard for some but ignore for others.

Straw man much? :rolleye2:

That is all I wanted to see, who is consistent and who just talks the talk. I figured you would be consistent but others not willing to answer the question probably aren't so consistent.

Or they think the point is so obvious that they didn't bother addressing it.

Are you a hypocrite much? You can call it a straw man if you like but I was just wondering where all the people who fought for the ground zero mosque's Constitutional rights were to fight for this man's same rights. It's not surprising that you are one of the one's who seem to find the Contitution useful on something you support and use it as toilet paper when you don't like it.

The same could be said about the ground zero mosque but it is all some seemed to want to bring up. It was repeated in many posts that they have the right but we think it is wrong to build it there. Some were hard Constitutionalist then, yet don't seem to be now.

I like you. And I mean that in the nicest of ways.

I'm glad because sometimes I stay up at night worried about that.

I personally don't care if he does it or not. I will be watching football. I think he is stupid for doing it but he has the right same as the ground zero Imam. I just like to see who really supports the Constitution and who just uses it to support their ideals.

Two basic principles apply: we're taught to love one another as part of our Christian beliefs and as patriots we are taught freedom of religion. Much can be and has been added to muddy the water, but the principles remain the same. Anything else, in my opinion, is regrettable religious and patriotic terrorism of our own making.

I wonder, if all those who are completely against the burning of the Koran, are aware of the following case:
Last year, the US Military collected and burned copies the Holy Bible that had been sent to our troops in Afghanistan.

A story hit the media today, stating that the U.S. Military made a choice to burn Bibles sent to soldiers on base in Afghanistan. The military has a policy that unsolicited religious materials are not allowed to be sent or distributed by military personnel. Central Command General Order No. 1 specifically forbids “proselytizing of any faith, religion or practice” and is to be strongly enforced in sectors which are predominantly Muslim, for fear such material distribution will be taken as an attempt on behalf of the U.S. to proselytize and convert the local people. If such actions were perceived in this manner, the military says it could jeopardize the safety of their mission and cause possible harm to come to the soldiers on base as well as the local Muslims who might show interest in another religion.

So it's OK for the US Military to burn the Bible because it might "jeopardize our troops", yet a respected General condemns a private citizen's right to burn the Koran, for the exact same reason?
Hmmm. What's wrong with this picture?

Fla. pastor: Burning Quran is 'direction God wants us to go' - USATODAY.com

I think this pastor is a delusional fanatic. It is difficult to change the mind of a delusional person so someone should tie him up and lock him in a closet before he causes real problems with the Muslims. Burning the holy books will be perceived as an act of terrorism and justification for more terrorism here on U.S. soil.

 

[gmart74]

oh, right. i didn't realize they had sworn not to commit any more terrorist acts in this country. gosh i hope this doesnt make them decide to start back up again.

 

[CrimsonPhoenix]

gmart...do you think this act of burning Muslim holy books will not aggravate the situation?

Sorry, but I disagree.

agreed. I couldn't care less about what the terrorizers (I love that word) think. I don't agree with the pastor, but I don't agree with the General either.
