SilverRain, in order for rignleois with non-mainstream values to be accepted in the USA, they need to sit passively by while everybody else shreds their most sacred beliefs like a comedy roast, only without the laughs. The US Senate made it its official business to do exactly this with Mormonism for many years (it was called The Reed Smoot Hearings ), and if it hadn't been for that, our church would probably still practice polygamy. By forcing the Mormon church to passively endure that spotlight of attention and disrespect, it converted Mormonism into a religion capable of mainstream acceptance Mormons had experienced violence, and that hadn't changed them, but non-violent incursions into their practices was just the thing. If everyone would have sat back and pretended to be tolerant, the LDS church would still be a marginal church with marginal beliefs isolated in a remote geographical area.It is both MORAL and WISE to treat Muslims the same way. We SHOULD do it.The fact that you compare my burning a printed artifact that I own to sexual assault shows how unhinged you are by this whole discussion.

Sorry Obamasama... but your talkspeak rings hollow, is meaningless and, in all probability, means just the exact opposite based upon your "Audacity to Hope/(Encroach)" spiel that has helped fatten YOUR wallet! 
Now level with your ex-supporters- Which planet are you really from??Liamonia, the planet of "sorry for this, sorry for that" of some other distant galaxy. I used to believe but no longer.
GET REAL and start packing. You make G.W. Bush look more and more like George Washington every day and every time you get into your "Public Speaking Mode" as if you are the robot Fidel Castro has spoken of.  And enjoy all the perks you've accrued as POTUS once you're gone while the rest of us will be treated to tasers, torture and possibly murder all due to your "bleedership".  Thanks; ... and good riddance.
P.S. I'm choosing to do my civic duty for this upcoming farcical joke of our upcoming election by casting my NON VOTE and ask those like minded individuals &nb sp;to do the same and who want to show true American patriotism  to the people of the world by showing how much we are REALLY represented and "believe in" this current system .  Once you boil it down, the citizens have virtually no influence at the ballot box at the federal level and are not even considered "..... the People" as the corporations/ lobbyist/ 0.0001%  are - and so by returning the favor with active resistance we can send the message of our plight and "tell 'em where they can stick it" as we rush on towards the precipice of the gurgleing (sic) vortex as we are drawn down into  the waste land that we have become to realize. 

This escalation of violence is just evidence of the underlying tension the afghan people have towards these invading terrorist.
Let this be a lesson to you , when karzai and his puppet regime can no longer feign their legitimacy, when the afghan people as a whole finally give up hope in americas 'democrazy ' , these invaders will be the first to feel their wrath ..

what this muslims want ,how many our chuches they burned in Kosovo ,and what happaned,because thet were ortodox chuches and that is ok if they burn and one kuran is biger than that ,this is all US plot we will see for what

that's terrible. good job the troops aren't selling heroin, planting I.E.D., subjugating women, marrying child brides, throwing acid in the faces of non-burka wearers, selling their daughters, promoting suicide as a theosophical doctrine or executing non-islamists. that would be terrible. just burning bits of paper with words on them. just a shame the people reacting to this didn't read any of them.

what the hell is wrong with right wing Christians in the USA how do you look and still not see  how fare from  the words of Jesus you speak now out of your mouth and with dark hearts you use his name.  you now have become  the pharisees.. we have no reason to still be in there country our war based  on false lies about 911 has no more just cause if ever it did. we now just remain in  Afghanista n to feed the industrial military complex  .. 
yo u talk about of freedom of religion&nbs p;and then say things like "Truth be told, I'm sure satan is very angry his book was burned" The Koran is not the work of evil, hatred is the work of evil and darkness...GOD is the light and open to all . we belong to him he does not belong to us. John 13:34-3534 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35&nbs p;By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” 36& nbsp;“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Matthew 22:36-4037 Jesu s replied: “‘ Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38& nbsp;This is the first and greatest commandment. 39  And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]  ;40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Islam. Forty Hadith of an-Nawawi 13Mohammed is said to have said"Seek for mankind that of which you are desirous for yourself, that you may be a believer; treat well as a neighbor the one who lives near you, that you may be a Muslim [one who submits to God]."and"That which you want for yourself, seek for mankind." I'm not religious i just read the books ...not burn them...

'Those who burn books, eventually, end up burning people'.

If the pathwtic Taliban who is using the burning of what they consider rhe holly book to convince the ignrant masses to carry on their failed battle- if they instead of that would go to Syria and help their arab brothers- from a bigger injustice than burning a book- You guys son't have any argument by calling americans Zionist- and we should stick with current events, not hundreds of years ago- as the US helped afghan against the russians- ohhhh but you don't talk about that right? - Some people just want to see the world burn

@Me-  it is sad that you know nothing of my country.  You see silly little man, we are free here and not racist and intloerable like all middle eastern nations.  In fact, we have a president of African descent, plus many peoples of all backgrounds that we elected to office.  Moreover, america is a melting pot of different races, ethnicities and religions.  We arent perfect but at least we are free here.  Try wearing what you want and saying what you want in Iran.  Or how about opening a christian church next to your taliban friends.  You are sad and ignorant. Christian You are just a typical American. Ignorant, arrogant and dumb. You brag that you have an African President. I don't think that you have voted for him and are now even embarrassed for his apology. You and we all know that he does not mean it, but nevertheless you are angry about that. I wish Americans like you had the decency to respect other nation's culture and religious values, but no you don't have it. You even don't care about their lives. You invade countries, kill and torture their people, destroy everything and worst of all insult their religion which is the dearest for them. I am a Christian and I respect every religious person regardless of what they believe. You should be ashamed of yourself. _______ ____________________ ____________________ _____________ @- Well said Tara! I have read around his posts; quite SICK character. Actually, truth is, is how was found their Zionist country. And is all they know.
Ohhh be quiet the two of you- who you call Zionist country- "You Stone Women To Death!!" aaaaand why didn't that unpronouncable name pf afghan president had the diplomacy "Diplomacy" you know what that is right? to appologize for the killings of 2 US soldiers forca F** book? In fact- one thing you're right about- Eurogarbage and Tara- the International community SHOULD get OUT of that dumb called country and let them run their own un-civililized culture- where you can even have a decent respectful honorable life without giving away your male children away to join an insane revolution that'll kill them eventually for no reason- or have your 13 year old daugthter marry a 70 year orld Talibam leader-And just in case you pass judgement- I did vote for my president and I'm frustrated he apologize for others - dispite being a diplomatic tool-

How embarrassing that Obama would apologize to these disgusting people.  They dont apologize for destroying ancient Buddist statues. Nor did they apologize for destroying the faces of their own women with acid.  Once again America takes the high road. ........... .................... .................... .................... .................... .....Are you really a Christian? Or you only brave with this title? As for your spiritual life, I don't ask too much, as I know already the answer.

Muslims killing Africans in Nigeria, Arabian rebels killing and raping native Libyans on their Land who is gonna stop them? I am not in support of trampling on other peoples right to worship or to religion. Yet we dont hear nothing from your gods? Who is gonna pay reparations to Africans for the holocaust against us? You all are headed for extinction and obviously the races who started it are on gradually ridding themselves off of this planet so that we Africans can regain the earth once again. May you all never live in peace!!!

They should get used to it, cause pastor Terry Jones said he would do it every year every may on international "judge the koran day"

tell you what.. i will get a copy of the old james version of the bible and a koran i will shred them into a pile and burn them as one to show both are =. k?

You can see from the posts here how divide and conquer strategy by the elite rulers who are no Christian or Muslim or Buddhist or anything else including human and how the humans are their own worst enemy because through their brainwashed reality they have never figured out that they are the game and they are being hunted by their own.

When Jesus Christ was teaching the Kindom of heaven, he draw near the whole nations and every kind of people both good Christian and non christian. He didnot fight anyone neither destroy Kuran or bomb cities. Jesus Christ is an example for us to follow and anyone not living by example of Christ he or she is not a Christian. The people burning Kuran are not Christian but hiding under Christianity to do their Evil. All muslims we love through the love of our Christ savour, The true Christian love all people of all kind, Christian to Destroy and don't Kill.
