Given my reverence for bacon, I almost think its a sacrilege to waste it on a Koran. But then again.... Nah, its a good use of bacon.
Um ... good post, but am I missing something? Why was it directed at me? Doing it solely to pi** them off is okay by me. I like to think that if we pi** them off enough, they’ll make like a tree and leave.
1.647 comments but only 303 views... wow youtube update the counter already.
Not “directed” at anybody, really. I was agreeing with you disagreeably, I thought.
Oh, okay! :^)

It's al baby's fault!
I figure that defending invasion of a Judeo-Christian society responsible for the most prosperous, charitable, generous, productive nation in history, especially making that defense as civilly and peacefully as possible — i.e., burning paper instead of people — would play some part in winning souls, especially when those souls were converted Muslims who could be confident that their new religion would not expect them to be slaughtered in the name of “peace.”
Yep. That will be on barack hussein obama’s teleprompters bright and early tommorow./sarc
Exactly.
It's time we quit worrying bout how islam views us. It's time for them to start worrying about how we view them.
Well, I can say truthfully that I have the perspective of a Christian whose church actually has a missionary to Muslim immigrants to America, and that from that perspective I can clearly see that media sensation events like this don’t help because it’s awful difficult to build bridges in the first place. Ultimately successful theological discussions with that people group do not begin with “just send your Koran up in smoke.” They begin with comparisons between Koran and the bible. It is less bad to torch paper than to torch people, but it is better (in most cases) to torch nothing.
Since burning a book conjures up other feelings, such as dictatorship and fascism, I suggest we rip out pages of a Koran to make origami peace doves.
WORTH REPEATING
Look at the 90s. How many times were we attacked and nothing was done in response? It didn’t weaken them, it STRENGTHENED them.
YES
Had the Clinton responded to the first WTC bombing like Bush did to the 911, we would not have had 911.
That’s the same one. There is rage in his face and hatred in his eyes.
What the heck I aint even been on this thread yet what did I miss?
There should be thousands in every State doing this.
They’re blaming you for your profile page. I did warn you...lol.
Sorry if I misunderstood your post and I found it from your rebuke of Rachel (who I am always in disagreement with). I was surprised when I agreed with her...it must be the way your response was written and we inferred your agreement.
