So what would happen if someone burned a bible???
 

Seriously, couple of oldies in wheelchairs and walkers yelling aloud and losing their dentures????

We live in a fucked up world :upsidedow

I would be annoyed at the disrespect, and I would think it insensitive.

However it's their right to protest, and unlike lots of muslims won't kick up a worldwide riot.

next to nothing...

i agree that it is a serious over reaction, but at the same time those pastors knew they were kicking a hornets nest when they did that so they have blood on their hands just the same...

What can we expect? We occupy their lands and kill innocent civilians every day. We're the terrorists to them, not the other way around. So, what may normally cause an intense reaction, now causes a blood bath instead. We reap what we sew.

The koran is said to be gods actual words in human readable print, the bible is not. So burning the koran is tantamount to burning god or some such extreme seriousness. The bible is known to be written about events and things in some peoples various opinions, like a blog about a tv show. The koran is more like the actual script.

Terrible examples, but maybe that helps understand people's reactions.

pretty sure bibles are sold at profit

Burning one right now and nothing seems to happen.. will keep u posted :D

Yeah cause there are no extreme Christians, just ask the abortion doctors. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I don't think it's a terrible example and do understand your point. Burning that book was stupid and caused death and protest. We know these guys care more about their religion and we taunt them although we are not over there to protect Any Religion but the $$ one :(

All religious texts are silly, superstitious trash. Anyone who thinks they are anything other than fiction is offensive to me.

Jesus will explode!

Silly or not - no one has the right to destroy or burn another faiths "bible" or writings. Instead we need to be tolerant of each other and stop this crazy shit of bashing. If we are to ever get out of this world alive and leave something of value to our children - we need to start acting a bit more mature

We actually do have a constitutional right to do so. But, I get what you're saying :)

Yes, of course. How silly of me. All religions preach tolerance and love for people of different faiths. :1orglaugh

Respecting religious zealots (regardless of faith) is not going to solve anything. Eliminating religion entirely is the only real solution. Hopefully through common sense, education and attrition the world will become less religious over the next few generations.

The Koran and The Bible are in the same category as The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy to me. Works of fiction.

Burn a bible and 100 altar boys get fondled by priests

depends how cold it is

I don't think you need to burn anything for this to happen.. But fortunately, altar boys are pretty close to be extinct :upsidedow

I never said it was perfect - but those who have faith need to respect and tolerate those who don't and it goes the other way around. Our world is falling apart because of wars and religious craziness on both sides. We live in a world with so much variation that the only thing that is certain is not who's right or wrong - but that we'll survive when we focus on mankind itself rather than religion or color of skin or where we were born. Yes there are idiots who serve religions that don't make sense - at the same time I have seen atheists do some pretty dumb things too - either way - we need to begin working together to make this a world that is still around for our kids to enjoy.

Nothing, it is just a book made of paper.

What's the dumbest thing you've seen an atheist do? Did one of us fly a plane into a building? How about hack someone's head off? Stone a woman to death for adultery? I did see an atheist get staggering drunk and go out to the bar in a grass skirt a coconut bikini one time but that's about it.

I know that seven UN workers wouldn't be killed.

I'll accuse him of vulgar fascism ...

They burn bibles and American flags so often, it doesn't even make the news anymore.

If I burned it in my woodstove, it would make a great fire starter and provide heat :thumbsup Thank you Jebus:pimp

actually i like the last one, it's probably the most useful of those three :1orglaugh


i wonder what religion Timothy McVeigh had...

or Adolf Hitler

or Stalin

...

look up Stalin...

nothing would happen because Christians don't have the balls to blow themselves up out of protest...so Im not fuckin w/ muslims..they some crazy ass mo fos

They would be warmer for about 5 to 30 minutes depending on how much of it they add to the fire over time and whether or not they use an accelerant. Note: FF dictionary doesn't have that word yet...

back in the times I smoked a few bibles, does it count? :1orglaugh

For me only thing I'd be worried is if my 90 year old Irish granny found out about it. There would be Hell to pay :(

So your solution to the problem is not to show respect and to eliminate their religion?

Congratulations you are part of the problem.

pull out my .45 named jesus

nothing unless the person burning the bible started chanting 'Nyah Nyah Nyah" then that is just cross a line

Who Cares?

Stalin was NOT an atheist. Stalin was a communist who happened to have a pretty good idea. Hitler was a christian and McVeigh was a mentally ill catholic.

And yes, the solution is to eliminate religion entirely. There is absolutely no place for it in a modern world. It's a constant source of violence and hatred. Most religious texts encourage killing those with different views. In a perfect world religion would be recognized as a silly left-over from the dark ages and anyone living their lives according to a religious book should be ridiculed openly (kind of like Scientologists are today). It's a mystery to me why being a "good Christian" and attending church every Sunday is still considered a good thing.

I've never heard a more well versed commentary on Stalin.

Really?








Wow.....








Just wow.......








.:1orglaugh

I'm gonna start a religion that burns It's own book.
