I can download the quran and delete it on my computer or put it in the trash/recycle bin -— what is the difference?
What the minister is doing is the theological equivalent of Luther nailing his theses to the door of the Church at Wurtemberg, or Ferdinand and Isabella driving the last Muslim bastards out of Grenada.
Its a public statement of defiance and anger, not a private meaningless act.
And THAT is why the Saudi-bankrolled elitists and politically correct intimidated wimps are crying and wringing their hands.
A double standard - one of Muslims and one of “unbelievers” - and THAT is PRECISELY what ISLAM is ALL ABOUT!!!
How stupid can the opponents of the Koran burning GET?????
ROFLOL! That is classic!
On September 11 we should all do that.
If you have a shredding program you can really delete it.
“I can download the quran and delete it on my computer or put it in the trash/recycle bin - what is the difference?”
Exactly - or “burn”” it onto a CD and then smash it with a hammer and called it “art”.
But I still think the public burning is overall a stupid idea. Legal, yes. Clever - no.
Or just take a copy and use it as target practice - who’s gonna stop you?
