Well any Protestant would, of course, protest. Luther and the other reformers would have considered them, for the most part, nuts. Actually the former pope kissed a Koran, which is going a bit far in the other direction. This Catholic book burning didn't happen in a vacuum anyhow did it? It happened in the context of actual Catholic ownership of the state, right? Where they felt they were responsible for the well being of the whole state, diplomacy in evangelism be damned?

Do you support the right of this Church to burn Korans? Would you be similarly offended if they were burning copies of the Book of Mormon? Or the NIV? Or the Satanic Bible? Or the Origin of Species?

The big question would be whether burning any of those books would be “dangerous”?

If in fact the only book that is “dangerous” to burn is the Koran, then as Americans it should be our sacred duty to burn them until it was so common an event that nobody would think twice about it. Until we have reached that point, then the Islamists are winning and liberty is the loser.
