Public discussion is one thing.

Book burning was not modeled in the New Testament as a way to advance the Kingdom.

I agree. It's VERY important not to do anything that may disrespect the muslims.

I’m not for the burning of the Koran, but you may want to rethink your position as well.

Acts 19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.

Acts 20 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.

“Book burning was not modeled in the New Testament as a way to advance the Kingdom.”

Given that books were mostly in the future, and that Essene Jews like Jesus were accustomed to scrolls like the Torah, you are correct.

However, given that man has free will, what works to induce discussion of MadMo and the Koranimals can be sen as an exercise of that free will.
