this whole burning the koran thing

I’ve been called an evangelical atheist before, so bear that in mind…

This whole people burning the Koran (Qur’an whatever) thing is hilarious!Let’s take a quick score card:

they protest that someone is going to burn a book…

by burning an effigy of the guy.

Umm hey Muslim dudes, what did you do to the Satanic verses again?

Burnt it

What happened at that protest in indonesia, you know the one with the whole “christians can’t use the word allah as god” thing, with the crosses and bibles that… um

Oh yeah, you burnt that too

And ANY time bush sneezed in a way that vaguely sounded like he might bomb somewhere?

You burnt flags

So in summary, paraphrasing the almighty Monty Python, TOUGH TITTIES TO YOU.

It’s a book, get over it. Feel free to burn any books I love, it’s just paper, I’m pretty sure dawkins or any other great authors would just laugh if you burnt one of their books.
