Burning the Qur'an...?

OK Gibbs, I will agree with this definition/description of flag burning.

Don't you worry about my ego, Gibbs.  If your definition is accurate and you keep the rhetoric to a minimum I won't have to disagree with you.  The definition I had issues with in this thread was the Imam's definition of terrorism.

Salams br&sis.As most of you know i live in flint/michigan and a actual burning of The Holy Qur'an took place about 45miles from my city ironicly near the michigan state campus who's mascot is a spartan.But,seriously Allah(swt)says in surah2( im paraphrasing)those who atempt to destroy Allahs revelation,on them is a curse.and a also a mercy they must make amends and openly declare the Truth.May Allah Have Mercy on them If they repent.May Allah invoke His rath upon them if they dont.ameen!Trully this is an act of evil

   "Do we hear of any Muslim threatening to burn the Bible?"

   Who would care? If someone wants to burn a Bible or the Qur'an or any other Holy Scripture of any religion what does it matter? It reflects badly on the person doing the burning but it doesn't change anything about the personal beliefs of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, etc. It's like burning the American flag, in a way. The flag of the United States of America symbolizes the freedom of Americans to burn it if that's what they want to do. What does that have to do with the country or the people of the United States? Nothing.

   I served in the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Army, California National Guard and have three Honorable Discharges. You would think someone like me would be angry with anyone who would burn the flag of my country, but it is just the opposite. I served in the Armed Forces of the United States to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. And it is the same U.S. Constitution that protects the rights of any American, or anyone in that case, who wants to burn the American flag or anything else in protest.
