Now it is internationally covered, which is just pathetic.

    Does he have the right to do it? Yes. But I think he might be better served in his understanding of Islam and indeed his own religion if he read one, instead of burning it. But that wouldn't make him famous, now would it?

    I think that about sums it all up nicely. The Media made this into a International event & they will probably stand by and report the burning
    event for public consumption too. Hey, "they are just reporting the news".

    Right.

    You mean hype the event shamelessly for public consumption?

    After all, they're just creating the news.

    May that evil minister rot in the fires of hell.

    He is not only a disgrace to the Christian faith, he is a disgrace to humanity.

    Shame on him. Shame on anyone who participates with him in this evil deed. Shame on anyone who supports him for this act.

    I agree with you to a point, maybe just one point.

    He is disgracing the Christian Faith. However, he has the Right to do it.

    I wonder what the Vegas odds are of him living if he goes through with this.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!
