hodgy0_2 08 September 2010 12:49 PM

hewn from the same bit of earth as the fanatical muslims he despises

very sad -- in a couple of thousand years he would be sectioned

tony de wonderful 08 September 2010 12:54 PM

He's an idiot but otoh the liberal-lefties attacking him and saying that it will inflame the muslim world and promote terrorism are hypocrites.

When Muslims burn American flags, stab journalists and leave the knife in their chest with an Islamic manifesto, blow things/people up etc, 'we' are supposed to turn the other cheek and tell ourself they are not 'real' muslims etc.

So this Pastor is an idiot but otoh he is moving the debate along and exposing hypocrisy.

I wouldn't decribe invading their countries as 'turning the other cheek':)

Trouble making in the name of Religion yet again :freak3::freak3::freak3:

Camoscooby 08 September 2010 04:01 PM

The last time I heard of people burning books was in 1933, the fire was surrounded by Nazi soldiers in salute............look what that led to.........it will achieve nothing other than making a volatile situation even worse:(

Leslie 08 September 2010 04:30 PM

It is certainly a very stupid act to start burning books as an attempt to get back at Islam.

Apart from the fact that it is a serious insult and cannot be justified, especially by what is supposed to be a civilised society, it will give rise to extreme trouble since the extremists will have the complete excuse that they need to really start trouble. It would be an absolute gift to them!

This man is a maniac and he should be firmly stopped before we see many innocent people suffering because of his dangerous intent.

I wouldn't say that the US took down Saddam because he was a muslim running a muslim country...that would be demagoguery.

What do you mean by 'their' countries anyway? How does a British Pakistani Muslim in Bradford lay claim to Iraq?:rolleyes:

Did the Muslim world get up on arms when some Muslims attacked a 'Christian country' (9/11)?

The extremists already have enough excuses.

I wouldn't call burning a book the act of a manic...maybe a idiot. Manics blow people up on tube trains not burn books...get some perspective.

So now we are all 'respectful' of religious books buy on other threads most were ridiculing Christianity and the Bible? Do we 'respect' religious texts or not?

mystery_machine 08 September 2010 07:07 PM

As he only has a congregation of about 50 people, surely if the stupid media didn't publicize this then no one be the wiser and it would be an irrelevant act?

I do not condone what he is doing as he is plainly a moron, but then is it in the public interest to show it across the world?

JMO :)

American fundamentalist v Muslim Extremist

A battle of wits between 2 unarmed men.

BOB.T 08 September 2010 08:47 PM

Tell me I'm wrong but hasn't the West been fighting a war on terror that happens to be against largely Muslims? Is it not the World's Muslims that are getting all jihady over it and calling it a war against Islam? :wonder:

Either way, this yank dud is a cock! :)

DCI Gene Hunt 08 September 2010 08:49 PM

Fcuked if I know - did you know that porn mags are coated with a special chemical that prevents them from burning on a fire (not jizz either).

BOB.T 08 September 2010 08:54 PM

I was not aware of that :)

If he's going to have a fire he may as well chuck some sausages on that would really piss em off :D

One word........Hitler. It is amazing how seemingly insignificant events at a point in time can have catastrophic consequences in the future.......:(

And are only people that blow up tube trains considered maniacal:wonder:

Nothing like a well publicised action such as this to give the extremists the ability to influence even more young people to carry out their orders.

I did not call him a manic.

Kindly don't order me about!

warrenm2 09 September 2010 11:49 AM

So an American church is planning to burn copies of the Koran on September 11th.

This idea is weird.

Burning something in memory of a terrorist plot, on the anniversary of it happening... it would never happen in Britain...........
