I have been on the receiving end, thankyouverymuch.
Burning a book, any book, is a pointless display of idiocy. I don't give a damn who is doing the burning or what is being burned-- the Bible, Dawkins, the Koran, Lewis Carroll. All you do is look like an idiot. You can't kill an idea by burning a book.
And if I have to spell it out ... yes, I support the U.S. Constitution and I am not a member of the Communist Party, blah blah blah... That is irrelevant to my point.
People that burn books and people that try to stop people by force from burning books BOTH buy into this absurd myth (that by burning books one can kill an idea).

I would defend his right to burn the books, however i wouldn't promote i would tell him he's being unrespectful and call him a idiotic jerk

He also cancelled the burning
Quote:US pastor Terry Jones cancels Koran burning
breaking news
The pastor of a small US church who wanted to burn copies of the Koran has cancelled his protest.
Terry Jones said he was calling off the Florida event after the group behind a planned mosque close to Ground Zero in New York agreed to relocate it.
Mr Jones had said the burning would be a stand against terrorism, but his plans have been internationally condemned.

Bu-but...but...now we have nothing to counter-protest! D:
 Just kidding, that's great to hear he's not going through with it. Although, I doubt he truly feels any differently than he did before. I hadn't heard about the mosque being relocated, though...

Before that Interpol issued an emergency warning that innocent people may be at risk if the burning got trough, we have to warn everyone in the world because islam is a very dangerous religion

Gee, I guess they will have to relocate it four blocks away from the site of the WTC instead of two. I feel safer now. Pastor Idiot has saved the day.

I doubt he has any agreement with them to be honest. Just another bit of publicity for this idiotic man.

I guess everyone knows that. But actually it is people who are dangerous. Yes, quran encourages their actions but so was the bible. Quran is stupid book written by selfish bastard. And there are a lot of violence in it. But its just a book. Maybe a time will come and most of the muslims will say that quran is not literal  Even today there are a lot of apologists. (We call them light muslims in Turkey..)

Yeah,it was on the news here tonight the crunt cancelled the burning; because an iman promised to move the proposed mosque near ground zero. Wrong imam
The iman in charge of the new mosque has said he ain't moving .Square one.
Of course the good pastor has the right to burn any book he owns. He even probably has the right to use the form of blackmail he used. (although it might make an interesting civil case) However,that doesn't mean I owe him my respect or anything else. My contempt is freely given. I'm also allowed to think the good pastor is a stupid,pig ignorant, bigoted,hateful, fascist cunt.

Oh, the scandal of it all! The Westboro Baptist church ("gawd hates fags") is jealous:
Fred Phelps' daughter: 'Westboro Church has already burned Qurans'
