I can't imagine someone Stateside who burned a copy of the Koran or Torah ever sticking around. He wouldn't last the day.
There's no reason Christians should except anything less than the firing of this guy -- unless we feel our religion is suddenly less worthy than others.
This guy didn't just spit on the Good Book or say it was trash, he went out of his way to make a display of burning it.

Sid Roth, a Jewish believer in Jesus, witnessing in Russia:
Our second stop was Saint Petersburg, Russia. Located in Northwest Russia on the Baltic Sea, Saint Petersburg is a beautiful city of some 4 million people. Spending three days in Saint Petersburg, thousands were saved and dozens of healings took place. As in the other countries, we were followed every where we went but in Russia it was the most obvious and overt. Saint Petersburg is one of the most anti-Semitic regions in the world and Jews are openly hated and persecuted here. We also encountered the greatest resistance here from the Orthodox (Hasidic) Jews who opposed the "Truth" of Messiah Yeshua and the news of His Salvation. Prior to the second scheduled outreach in Saint Petersburg, a group of Hasidic (Orthodox) Jews publicly protested in front of the rented theatre where the word was being preached. They passed out anti-Yeshua flyers, video taped all Jews entering the building, and were chanting Kabala curses over us and the event. The protesters (including the local Hasidic Rabbi) told the attendees that they had been caught on film and would not be allowed to immigrate from Russia to Israel (Aliya). The protestors said the video would be shown to Israeli immigration officials and those attending the outreach would be denied Israel Visa's because they would be labeled as Christians and believers in Yeshua. This was a tactic that was reminisce of the KGB! When we pulled up to the theatre in our taxi Sid said to start taking photographs of the protesters. I began taking pictures as soon as I got out of the cab and this made the protestors extremely agitated but they agreed to cease video taping if I quit taking pictures. We had reached an agreement and the outreach went on as scheduled with hundreds being saved. The hand of man cannot stay the hand of God! We went forward in faith and strength as we prayed I Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power and of love and of a sound mind.", and Hebrews 13:6 "We will say with confidence, the Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What can man do unto me?" God is breaking through in Russia, the Russian people are hungry for Him! So many miraculous healings took place that it's hard to recall them all; Club feet, bad hearts, injured backs, injured necks, deafness, etc. . . were all supernaturally healed. When God's Glory falls, signs, wonders, and healings occur. The last city country on our three city tour was Odessa, Ukraine.
Or like one of my favorite Freepers, TrueBeliever9, would say, "Nuke them with prayer!"
