But I got to thinking ...

One, I've never actually burned a Bible - mostly because I just never had one handing at a campfire - or wherever I may have needed some kindling. And Two ... I never much cared.

Anyway the questions: Have you ever burned a Bible? If so why? If not - would you?
Obviously there is a certain stigma over burning books of any kind. Some would consider burning a book a futile expression and a sign of ignorance, but is it ignorance to burn a book that you know better than those who worship it? Could it not be immoral not to make an attempt to destroy an immoral book?
Thoughts?
I have had thoughts of having a "Judge the Bible" day like Terry Jones did in March. If I actually go through with it and we find The Bible guilty, I have the music I'd want to score the burning.
