BBC News - US church defiant despite condemnation of Koran burning
A small provincial church in Florida, The Dove World Outreach Centre, is planning to burn copies of the Koran on the anniversary of 911. Paster Terry Jones has been branded a lunatic by other church leaders and has been criticised by Hilary Clinton, and the commander of American Forces in Afghanistan, saying this action will put his men in great Danger. What are your views, personally I think he is a lunatic, will stir up trouble a stoop to the same level as the Islamic fanatics

Re: Koran
 

Any one burning books lives in fear of the truth and should be treated like a witch.
:mad:

Re: Koran
 

I think it is a very dangerous thing to do......after all there are still American troops in the theatre of war.......this is going to put their lives at risk.

I also think it is a very disrespectful thing to do......and will offend all muslims.
To gain respect you have to give respect.......so I am against this sensationalist ploy.

Re: Koran
 

its another good example to me of the kinda dick-heads that inhabit the U.S.A.:rolleyes:

Re: Koran
 

The biggest threat to world peace is not just the radical muslims. It is also the lunatic Christian fringe in America that spawned George Bush junior and spawned this dipstick.

Re: Koran
 

I disagree there.

By and large, the Christian way of showing disapproval has been to withhold invitations from the vicar's tea party and that was enough to let anyone know they'd upset the rest of society. All this blowing things up and burning effigies nonsense does seem to have come primarily from the Middle East up to now.

However, Bush and Bush Jnr did no favours to the Western world by poking the ants' nest with a big stick and a group of radical churchgoers in the good ol' US of A is hardly going to help matters. The problem is that we're all going to be tarred with the same brush in the way that Muslims and radical Muslims are viewed as pretty much identical now.

The Koran isn't very far removed from the Bible if any one of these idiots cares to read it before burning.

Re: Koran
 

Well, I thought it was a good read. Seems that the Pastor would disagree!

Re: Koran
 

I'd be very careful what you post on here, Ken. The good pastor Jones (any relation to Graham, I wonder?) normally carries a .40 calibre automatic pistol strapped to his waist and if he reads Accy web, you never know he might get very upset for calling him a nutter and then he might just come over to Rishton and use it on you.

Re: Koran
 

This has to be a wind-up... Pastor Terry Jones is the bloke from Monty Python. :)

Re: Koran
 

I thought you'd like Pastor Jones, Mancie. The man funds his 'Church' from a furniture import business, whose employees are not paid but live rent free in slum properties. Just the sort of businessman you admire.

Re: Koran
 

That's why I say the lunatic Christian movement in the USA is so dangerous. We could well get attacked because of those morons.

Re: Koran
 

Of course, the muslims never burn anything.

They must be upset because they have 1st dibs on burning our bibles, flags, images etc.

The whole thing is just pathetic & they show how backward they are by getting so pent up about it.

Re: Koran
 

the whole thing is pathetic, the thing is though n there are those who are too dumb to see it, this nutter burning korans, will no doubt cause probably 1000s more nutters to join the taliban/.al quaida etc and will be of great assistance to killing n maiming troops out yon.:rolleyes:

Re: Koran
 

Cant see a problem burning the Koran to be honest as long as they burn all the other storys - sorry bibles etc, all a bunch of fairy tales if you ask me, but everyone to their own

Re: Koran
 

storys or not is irrelevant, its the consequences of the action that is.:eek:
