Innocent people died because of Minister Moron’s publicity stunt.
No, they did not. There are dozens of thought experiments and examples of real life behavior that prove your assertion 100% wrong.
Muslims around the world commit atrocities against Christians, their churches, their domiciles and businesses, almost on a daily, un-newsworthy basis. They routinely shred, burn or otherwise desecrate Christian Bibles. If your “point” had the remotest validity, there would be incessant drive-by shootings of defenseless Muslims on the streets of Ann Arbor MI and Newark, NJ. Perhaps the Amish would riot...or even Pastor Swampwater himself.
Some swampwater preacher wants to burn a Koran, let him. I take no pleasure in it. What’s your feeling about cartoons of Mohammed in a newspaper? Gibbon, after reading the Koran, concluded that it was “an incoherent rant.” If he were alive today, that would get him beheaded for sure. How about my spelling of their unholy text?
You obviously did not go to the trouble of reading the article in the Illinois review, but rather chose to pass Pharisaic judgment on Pastor Jones, along with some sneering at Freepers on this thread. My unhappy conclusion: You are either a left wing Muslim sympathizer/provocateur/troll or a logic-challenged mental infant.
“unhappy” my butt. I am sure that is your HAPPY conclusion anytime someone has the temerity to call the Neanderthal on their Neanderthalishness.
Read it for yourself. Gibbon was 100% correct. Religious texts predating the Koran by two thousand years or more show more advanced theological understanding. Mo couldn’t even write.
Minister Moron knew very well people would die if word of his stunt was spread to the Middle East.
