Lev Davidovich Bronstein, better known as Leon Trotsky cannot answer.

They’re blinded by their irrational emotions. That’s why.

My uncle on my mother’s side was a church official and owned a motel. A fire destroyed much of the motel and among the charred structures about 6 Bibles were left unscathed among the ruins. As a 12 year old I was impressed by that.

Doesn’t always work out that way, though.

1. What is a “Faith Leader”?

2. No security cameras?

3. The church was open but unattended?

No offense, but our smallish church is a lot more secure than this one in Battlefield L.A.

This is dated March 19th. Do they have a crystal ball to tell the future?

While I, as a Christian, would hate seeing someone burning a bible, I would not want to ban either of those.

For Mohammedans it is even worse - and this explains why Islam is NOT worshipping the same god:

For most (99%) Mohammedans, the Quran is NOT the equivalent of the Bible. The equivalent of the Quran in Christianity is JESUS CHRIST Himself.

For us Christians, the Word of God is Jesus - He is eternal, uncreated. For Mohammedans, the word of Al is the Quran - eternal, uncreated.

For us Christians the bookS of the Bible (73 books, 800,000+ words) is God-breathed, but God working through the human authors. For Mohammedans, the Quran (1 book, 77,000 words) is the dictated, word-for-word by Jibril (Gabriel) to Mo - so cannot be interpreted or touched.

So the BOOK i.e. the Quran itself is sacrosanct.

We Christians are not people of the BOOK, we are people of the Word (Jesus Christ)

Furthermore, the Islamic deity says that he is ONE and is vociferous about it, while we always see God with His wisdom in the Old testament and a Triune deity in the new testament
