I will say it again.

It is just a book.

But to all of us, some inanimate objects mean a lot of very sacred things.

Destruction of those "things" can bring us to tears or anger.

A wedding ring, an American Flag, a Bible, a first Communion book, a rosary, pictures of our children, pictures of our parents who are gone, a cross, ...a star of David...

If any of those things were destroyed JUST because of hatred, it would make the owner want to fight.

My point was originally that this book, THIS book was burnt just to incite attention and to begin a huge fiasco that could have been avoided.

It goes against anything I have learned that is right.
So if Christians respond with riot and murder to the next "art" exhibit sponsored by the National endowment to the "ARTS", you will say the same thing.. I doubt it.
Of course you do not have to worry about it because Christians are Christians, and you know that.
