So what if Ron Paul is not for burning any book. Are we in Nazi Germany??? And beside, don’t you remember the massive outrage when they draw the Mohammad cartoons ? Now imagine their reaction if we burn their holy book. Pissing off 25 % of the world population doesn’t seem constructive to me. And
Petraeus, said this act would put the troops in greater danger. Just for that, the pastor shouldn’t do it period.

I see you completely missed the point. I don’t think it is a good idea either, mostly because I think it is a publicity stunt by these people.

The point is Paul claims the problem isn’t the book burning but our own military and we caused the terrorism.

Once again, Fraud Paul finds a way to blame the US.

Most of that Islamic chunk of the world is illiterate and has little access to world news ~ or even the news from the village across the way.

They'll hear about this in about a million years.

BTW, it is not in the mullahs' interest that the people they suck the life out of know that Korans may be burned with impunity.

They have those poor people believing it is a magic talisman that will protect them against harm, heal the sick, pay the bills, and solve all their personal interrelationship problems. It is a physical manifestation of the concept described as "Jesus" in "Jesus Can Work It Out".

You can even think of it like it's a Tibetan Prayer Wheel ~

There are an awful lot of people out there into Liturgical Religion and they fail to see the attractiveness of something like a Shouting Church, or a major talisman like the Koran, or prayer wheels, or the penetrating beat of the drums across vast wilderness of the sub-arctic, or the construction of commemorative mosques on top of the graves of the enemy.

These things have tremendous power over the minds of men ~ (personally I much prefer "Jesus Can Work It Out" and I use that only as a reminder of what non-liturgical services can do).
