		<description>I think it should be noted that many many Christians have denounced this guy in public.  He represents everything that a pastor should NOT be.  When the IRS audits him, they will likely have enough evidence to put him in jail.</description>

		<description>I think this is really very silly and immature action , if a pastor hates Koran or Muslims then this is his own problem but it is definitely wrong to burn religious books because clearly this action won&#039;t eliminate Islam , as a matter of fact it will make Muslims more attached to their religion and surely more willing to protect it.</description>

		<description>1.	Traditional book burning tries to completely destroy certain books so that the ideologies contained within are removed from society. Obviously this is not the goal of this church, they are just making a statement. I am a follower of Christ, and wholeheartedly believe I am following the right path- but people have the right to make informed decisions and choose their own way. If this Church really believes their faith is right and Islam is wrong, they should be spending their time living out the teachings of Christ and meeting other ideologies head on in open debate.</description>

		<description>What this means is that that particular church and its members haven&#039;t been reading the Bible enough. If they had, they wouldn&#039;t have had time to burn the Koran. Or perhaps it’s because they&#039;ve been reading the Koran, and not the Bible. Either way, they ought to read the Bible enough until they stop thinking about burning the Koran.
More conventional Christians know that Muslims have a way to God, just like Jews. It is known that Muslims don&#039;t worship the Devil, and that they think that heaven is full of seraglios and virgins waiting for them when they pass from this earth. It sounds like Saudi Arabia to me, but I won&#039;t go down the path of Lawrence. Of Arabia. I believe he was actually Muslim.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;There’s a line between making a valid statement and being a dick, and I think this crosses it.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Does fabricating an entire religion of hate cross your line?   Does putting words in the mouth of an infallible deity, nasty evil words, cross that line.   Why the double standard.   Why in your mind does someone ghost writing for god get to call for my murder and/or subjugation, while others get to worship that crap and pass it on to their children, and that leads you to think that I&#039;m somehow the dick if I decided to burn that trash?</description>

		<description>Roxane,

An involuntary book burning is if someone busts your door down and burns your books against your will.   A voluntary one is when you decide you don&#039;t want your books any more and throw them in the incinerator.</description>
