Should the media not report on Rev. Terry Jones (Qu'ran burner)?

Muslims are such a sensitive group of people, someone burns the Bible thats their sin, but since this one Pastor wants to burn the Koran holy crap the Islamic Countries are threatining all out World War 3.

deniiiii21

Which Islamic countries have threatened World War 3 over Jones' plan?

The media is often irressponsible.

Dude dont act like you know anything about islam cuz you clearly dont. Muslims see christians and jews as legitimate followers and believers of god and muslims believe that the bible and old testament are actual words of god there are many verses in the quran that come from the bible and old testament if a muslim burns a bible or a torah its because its the only way the can get rid of it if its not in use or desecrated and its the same with the quran, but actually burning or stomping on it because of hate is something muslims know not to do. If this were true muslims across the world would be burning bibles as revenge or retaliation but instead they are burning US flags because they know better, you sir are clearly bias because ive seen some of ur posts and you tend to hate on islam or muslms

There are a group of people who burn bibles every year yet no one cares, you have 1 group burn the koran and all of a sudden its a threat to national security :lol: all this does is show the true colors of the so called religion of peace.Silenthps

I mean needless to say he isn't the one who promoted himself originally, and with the fact that this is pretty much a steel shed. The American media reporting this (and Islamic countries picking the story up) has set off terrorism alarms against Americans, and caused Islamic-worldwide Anti-American feelings. With the fact that despite what he's doing is despicable it is also not physically harming anyone nor is it a real debate on if this should be done or not, should this event have been ignored by the media?

Do you know anything about Islam?Burning the Bible or torah because of hatred which are considered to be holy books revealed by god through Jesus and Moses respectively is a sure way ticket to hell for muslims.Stop with your hate posts.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="sosodat"] I 100% agree with you but sometimes it just seems like we are the ones that puts oil on the flame. The mosque at ground zero can be dealt with politically and socially and in a civilized manner but burning a book thats considered very important to 1.6 billion people just to make the statement that we will not tolerate you is not only putting oil on a flame but also hateful, and discriminatory.conistant

That doesn't mean you insult the people of the Book by burning their Holy texts... it'd be rather blasphemous for another Muslim who also believes in Jesus, David, Lot, Jonah, Moses, Noah, etc. to destroy the book of the Jews or Christians who have very similar or SAME story...

I actually wrote a blog about this, not trying to offend anyone here but I honestly think the media should jump off a cliff in this regard. :P

Burning of the Koran deal has sparked international attention, and who's to blame for this? Sure, the fifty-member Church is the focal point -- but the principle violator in this case is the media. Guess what, no one would give a rat's ass nor even know about it if the media didn't run NATIONAL HEADLINE NEWS ON IT. Sheesh, it's a 50 member church in a small town and you're trying to make this up to be a huge deal?

The only folks you're hurting is America itself. They're real life trolls, they'll feed on this hate towards them to push forward. You bet news crews and what have you will be there on September 11th, and you all are just as bad as they are. Your images will be seen by Extremists far more likely thans a small time news story, or a tiny link in a internet forum. The best way would be to ignore them, yet common sense doesn't hold true and ratings do. *sigh*

And furthermore, being offended over this is just silly. It's a damn book. Must like the draw cartoon day of the prophet. I mean, really? I don't understand why panties can get in bunch over this sort of stuff -- unless twas' a personal item of the inflamed person. Countries have called for USA to step in an stop them from burning the books. Every heard of Free Speech there guys? No? Oh yeah, that's because you're a developing Third World Country that has religious sects in your governments. My bad.

Respecting other religions and your neighbours are a number one priority, on top of that. A true muslim would never burn a bible, its as if they were burning the Quran. Places of worship and Books of religion should never be purposefully destroyed.

of course they should.

It just should not be front page news.
