You were probably just speaking loosely, which I can understand... But, as it is, burning a Quran is horrible. To also mention burning a Bible... kind of falls within the same mindset as this guy. Retribution. He's in his own little world, at the moment, I personally would prefer not to drag average people into his equation.



Why don't we all just burn some firewood??

Well actually he kinda has a point... 11'th September (this year) is the 3'rd (and last) day of eid, it's a religious day that celebrates the end of ramadan it'd be equivalent to 2'nd christmas day.
That said I am sure the pastor didn't thought of that timing though and it's probably also one of the reason why most world leaders respond so early and clearly on it.

BREAKING NEWS

He is not going to burn the Quran. He is going to go to New York to talk with the NY Mosque Iman.

I'm sorry. I guess that puts the Tsk. on me.
You learn something new everyday. Thanks for that.

I'd agree with that statement.

Nice. I seriously doubted he'd back down.
What was his basic reasoning? [Edit: Nvm, I read an article]

I pressume it wasn't due to a few goverment gentlemen and their guns?

So now he's going to talk with Imam Rauf? I wonder if two really religious people can discuss something without letting their religion get in the way. And what will they talk about? Moving the mosque?

Supposedly he believes the Islamic Center near Ground Zero will be moved.

Personally, I never thought he would go through wit it, he is just looking for the attention.

Everyone's said it, but now that it seems like it's over with... it really feels like the media got played moreso than they tried to play him.

What is the difference between Terry Jones and Kurt Westergaard?
One is criticized in the U.S. and Europe,the other is praised in Europe.Both of them are disgusting for Muslim.
Terry Jones should draw cartoons in which they attack Muslim and burn the Quran?

Technically not much except for the reasoning behind the provocation

I just heard that Donald Trump offered to buy the site where the mosque is supposed to be built plus adding 25% to it. HE says he wants the mosque to be built 5 blocks away from ground zero, rather than two. Can this be a possible solution To all this?

As long as Muslims don't consider it a defeat.
