Isn't that what this whole book burning business is about? Christians feel disrespected by Muslims and Muslims feel disrespected by Christians and the burning of the book that they hold dear is just a blatant way of saying that someones beliefs aren't worth a shit. Nobody, including an Atheist, likes to be shat upon.
14. He may not care but I'd be surprised if he wasn't aware of them
The thesis of American Conservative Christians is that we are in a struggle with Islam, and they started it. Every little shred of evidence to support that thesis will be gathered.
He probably doesn't see any difference between Indonesian Muslims and Indonesian Christians, and it it were up to people like him they'd all be exterminated.
19. It's possible that he's just racist (even likely) and hates brown people and therefore hates Muslims
But I think it's just as likely that he just hates Muslims and sees them as agressively attacking Christianity. In which case, he would come down on the Indonesian Christians side.
Christianity is an evangelical faith - Christians are supposed to take the "good word" throughout the world and supposed to support those who accept the Gospel.
If they burned a pile of books by Dawkins, Ingersoll, and Hitchens, wouldn't bother me. Might even interest people in seeing what was so horrible and get them to buy more.
20. Bullshit.....for one thing I am agnostic, not christian ...if that makes it any better for you
and I am simply trying to point out the bullshit of the situation...I make no apologies for anyone! BTW I think what Terry Jones is doing is hateful and stupid.
