Maybe a tasteful back yard ceremony would be better, like I do.

I used to cut the cover into the shapes of my shoes and walk around on them all day, but I decided I don’t like being that close to evil.

Personally it just seems kind of pointless to me.

He should use it to put the muslim world on the spot by demanding the release of the iranian woman facing stoning in return for not burning them.

How much you want to bet some federal judge will somehow magically find some obscure way to halt the Koran Burning ?

Tick, tick, tick ...

I’m convinced that this pastor is merely seeking attention for his 50 member congregation.

Koran burning should be conducted during non-church hours.

The talking points are out there, this puts our troops in jeopardy.

8 years of calling Bush a war criminal, chanting that he "lied", and that the "insurgents" are "freedom fighters" who deserve to win (Michael Moore, et al) did "nothing" to put our troops (or contractors) in jeopardy.

I ain't buying it.

Golly gee.... Doesn't the church have the right to burn the Koran? That is what the critics of the church say about Iman Rauf and Bloomberg building that mega mosque on ground zero hallowed ground. Iman Raul, Obama, and Bloomberg say the Muslims have a right to build that mega mosque in the hallowed ground zero vicinity. When that mosque is built (if it is built) it will be a giant middle finger to the 9/11 families and the rest of America.

Is the pc crowd showing a little hypocrisy here?

"Pastor" Terry Jones seems to have graduated from the Fred Phelps school of evangelism.

In any case, he's a damned fool.

He should say “ok, we won’t burn them, but we went out and bought a heavy duty industrial paper shredder, and we need to test it”

Although I don't think burning the Quran is of any usefulness, this is no different than what that idiot Penn Jillete does with the Bible.

It's not OK for some religous nut-job to burn Korans....
 
Yet it's OK for the US Military to burn Bibles?

The Muzzies have a thing where they cast stones at the devil, this is the same only burning his book.

I have a great idea, how about the "Yule Koran", for Ramadan. Like the Yule Log but with a perpetually burning Koran and Hadiths, with close-ups of burning pages of such wonderful classics of the religion of peace and tolerance, such as...

"Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends." (Surah 5:51)

"Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you. (Surah 9:121-)

"Muhammad is God's apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers" (Surah 48:29)

Those who say: 'The Lord of Mercy has begotten a son,' (Jesus Christ) preach a monstrous falsehood..." (Surah 19:12-, 29-, 88)

“You will indeed fight against the Jews and you will kill them to the point where the rock and the tree will say: ‘O Muslim! O slave of Allaah! There is a Jew hiding behind me. Come and kill him.’ (Surah Al-Baqarah: 120)

...and many other wonderful favorites!

I don't believe that there is a nexus between burning the Koran in Florida and violence in Afghanistan other than the reactions of psychotic killers. That is a cause and effect I don't accept as legitimate because I don't believe in pandering to sociopathic forms of insanity.

Give in on one demand from a psychopath and there will be another demand right on its heels. It sure doesn't sound like good military strategy to give ground to the enemy on the basis of their emotional state of mind.

(I have no comment on the wisdom of a church engaging in actions like this.)

Towards the end of the article, there is a line that mentions that this damages the opinion of the USA by muslims around the world. Really? Gee, I hope this doesn’t make them do something crazy like behead some Americans or blow up some buildings... Oh, never mind.

If that preacher needs someone to come p!ss on them first, let me know.
