[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Brothers and Sisters, I'm ashamed to admit that my congregation didn't think of this first. Instead, I found out about it online.

Dove World Outreach Center is a non-denominational evangelical church in Gainesville, Florida. They have announced a special celebration of the 9th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks . . .



Dove will host “International Burn a Quran Day” on September 11, 2010. Pastor Terry Jones says the idea came, in part, from the recent success of “Everybody Draw Muhammad Day”. He comments that “We feel, as Christians, one of our jobs is to warn,” and that burning the holy books of another religion will provide Muslims an opportunity to convert.


...


Jones is author of a book, Islam Is of the Devil. The book’s title reflects a sign placed outside Dove World Outreach, and explains Jones’s history working to “free souls from Islam”. He further explains how his church uses the congregation’s children as political pawns, sending them to school wearing shirts saying “Jesus is the Way” on the front, and “Islam is of the Devil” in the back.


Jones and his congregation have chosen to take an action that will not convert Muslims to Christianity. It will only serve to fan the flames of hatred, enraging even moderate Muslims.

That's right, some dinky little single-issue church beat us to this fabulous idea!

What should we do? Join them, or do them one better? "Everybody Behead a Muslim Day"?

[Pastor Ezekiel]

I've never thought of burning them either. I have other uses for that demonic book.

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Everybody Flush a Surah Day?

[Lisa H]

What a wonderful idea. It would make a lovely bonfire.

[Levi Jones]

What a wonderful idea, Reverend! I think I will go out and buy 100 copies to burn. That will teaching those murderous muzzie scumbags.

[TheLordSavedMe]

Couldn't we all just burn TWO Korans?

This is after Brother Levi's post:

I guess if two is good, 100 is better!

Why would you buy them. Just take them.

We could have our women make Burqas for themselves and go into the mosques, take their Qurans, and bring them to us! Nobody would be able to identify them!

Lisa, that's a wonderful idea!

[Oakland "Reb" Griner]

I have found the cheap ink used on most Korans to be somewhat irritating when used as TP. However, I do wipe up the occasional dribble and dreck from my German Shepards with torn out pages, and they are a handy size and texture for the smaller messes.

If you don't want to go the trouble of making burqas, just get a few women to enter the mosques wearing high heels and gossiping. They always runaway for some unknown reason. Also take along a black dog for extra protection.

I'm willing to lend my Rotts, for some reason they think that black dogs with light marking over the eyes are especially evil. Hey, if we need to I know a breeder of Gordon Setters that we could borrow as well.

So, if burning a Koran is acceptable to True Christians™, then burning a Bible would be, as well? It is a freedom of speech issue, after all.

I don't really want to burn my KJV1611 (it cost me $20), but I really feel the need to express my freedoms, which were bought and paid for by the blood and sacrifice of millions.

A Bible is just a book, anyways. A physical object manufactured by humans. Ink and paper. Any reverence for the physical book itself smacks of idolatry (aside from sentimental value for, say, an old family Bible, of course).

Really, Lisa? You even forget Exodus 20:15 "Thou shalt not steal"?

Can you show us in the Holy Bible where God commands us to practice "freedom of speech" with filthy mudslimes?

Deuteronomy 13:6-10
If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die.

2 Chronicles 15:13
Whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

But we're having a War on Terror, and Muslims are terrorists, so if it's war then it's not stealing, it's doing what the President and God wants us to do!

I get a 100 point PERMANENT infraction instead of an answer. Thanks, Pastor Ezekiel. You could have just said, "No", but you didn't, so should I take that as a "Yes"?

Of course not, because it's not there. God of the KJV1611 gives us no human rights, free speech, fair trial, etc.

Among other "grave breaches" of the Fourth Geneva Convention is "appropriation of property not justified by military necessity and carried out unlawfully", so it's still stealing even in a "war".

Look friend, these mudslimes come to America uninvited and unwelcome, so what was once theirs now belongs to America which is a Christian nation. Also, by taking their satanic Korans away we might even have a chance of saving these mudslimes and guide them towards the path of Christ instead. Is that a crime to you? Why do you hate Jesus so much?

[Nobar King]

A pocket quran is more suitable for burning: the surface area/mass ratio is increased with the small pages, and they are printed on extra thin paper for portability.

How could you say you would do such a horrible thing to the Bible.

The Lord knows taking their Koran is not stealing but doing his work.

Matthew 6:32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things

1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

That is reference to steeling from Christians. Stealing from heathens, muzzies, and non-believers is allowed.

100 permanent infraction points and 200 reputation points later, and I still don't get an answer. Do I get called "hatemonger" instead, again, Zeke?

Now ladies, you know the drill. KJV1611 book, chapter and verse, please.
