We aren't talking about run of the mill Muslims, we are talking about extremists.

What about the Crusades? Let's not pretend that Christianity is innocent.

It is also worth noting we are not a Christian nation. If we were I'm sure being gay would be banned (or worse) as well as many other things.

We aren't?Then what is the concern,radical Muslims are already radical and so this won't affect anything.

Psst,might want to research what the Crusades were in RESPONSE to...the attacks BY Muslims on Christian lands.

Yes,we have freedoms here,including the freedom to burn a book.

Freedom is great isn't it?

Liked the personal attacks too,illustrates the lack of thought in your position.
There's nothing personal amigo.

Fact is if the Koran is burned, so is the Bible.
And apologists like you don't appear to know this.

Which Jesus you talking about? Jesus was a popular name back in the time of Jesus of the bible.

Those are artistic expressions.

But anyway, I think we all agree that he's doing a disgusting thing. It's the consequences of the event (whether or not there are any or not) and the justification for the event that we are arguing over.
