Having said all of that, Terry Jones (the pastor) strikes me as a publicity-seeking con man who apparently supports the nutjobs of Westboro baptist church.
We could use a better frontman in defending the West against Islam, a role the Catholic Church had historically done but, due to internal weaknesses and muddled post-V2 thinking, has abdicated that role.
You're completely right. I mean, heck, not even 100-200 years ago, you had Catholics burning Protestant tracts and bible translations in the U.S. because of the false teachings contained therein.

Really? In the US? Since Catholics had historically been minorities in the US I think this is highly improbable.
In Europe - very likely - but likely not in the US unless it was in colonial Maryland.
I don't know what this has to do with confronting Islam except that it gives you a chance to take a gratuitous shot at Catholicism. Congratulations.
Ummm ... after checking your profile I now think you were serious (and not sarcastic) in your previous reply ....
So I don’t know how to respond ... except to say that I still think Catholic book-burnings of Protestant bibles must have been unlikely given US history and demographics.
Have a nice day.
