Well spoken. No slur against Balding_eagle but it would take a lot more guts to do that rather than what Pastor Jones is doing. And there are many good Christian missionaries (Baptist, Presbyterian, Catholic, Pentecostal etc) who are doing this and deserve our support, prayers and admiration.
As in any war, there are many different strategies and tactics used to win. Burning the koran is but one. Standing in front of a mosque is another one.
Certainly you aren't going to disparage the WWII soldier who 'fought' behind a desk are you?
Secondly to your question Certainly you aren't going to disparage the WWII soldier who 'fought' behind a desk are you? No
thirdly, that's an erroneous analogy -- Pastor Jones is no soldier "fighting behind the desk" -- all he's doing is inflaming the Moslems, endangering the lives of Christians in Moslem lands (giving the Moslems the little trigger they need to step up their killing, raping etc of Christians) and not serving the higher purpose of converting them from Islam.
No, I see Pastor Jones as just a guy looking for publicity for his 50 person group.
I much more appreciate the Korean missionaries who go into the devil's mouth to convert. Those are the real soldiers.
