New Controversies around the Desecration of the Quran

[Ferrocyanide]

There could be other reasons for burning a book.

There is no reason to burn books

Maybe the book comes from a politician you don’t like or you don’t like his politics and you want to send a message.

Burning books is not a valid way to protest politicians. Refute their ideas don't burn books.

Maybe the book comes from someone who hates LGBT and you don’t like his politics/opinions and you want to send a message.

Burning books is not a valid way to defend LGBT rights. Defend LGBT right don't burn books.

Maybe the book comes from someone who wants to pollute and destroy the ecology and you are against his politics/opinions and you want to send a message.

Burning books is not valid to save the planet. Pushing for green initiatives is


It's not right to burn a book simply because you dislike the message instead work against the message. 

I don’t know the details who the Koran burner in Sweden is. Maybe he doesn’t want foreigners in his country, maybe he finds that his culture is under attack by high level of immigration, maybe he has heard about the interactions between christians and muslims in the past and present and so, he doesn’t like all muslim people.

None of those reasons are either valid or a reason to burn a book.

Maybe he is in front of the turkish embassy since he has a problem with the politics of that country.

That's not a valid reason to burn a book.

He needs to listen to his heart and do the right thing and if he needs to get his message across by burning the Koran, that is fine.

No, it's not fine.

The rules to get your message across is not set in stone.
Example:
Some people want to form a union, block passage to the Ford factory until Ford listens to the demands of the employees.

That's equal to burning books.

Sometimes, you need to set a few cars on fire, cut the electric lines, etc.

Again not the same as burning books 

But at least, none of these guys are suddenly escalating it into murders.

To quote a famous poet 

I understand your POV.
My POV is that it is ok to burn books. People can protest using the style that they want, as long as they don’t harm other people and other people’s property.
