Oh, I didn't mean it like that. I'm gay. I was just pointing out that the Jesus in the play was the religious one and not someone else.

Do I see something wrong with book burning?

Are you calling me a Nazi?
You seemed to forget to actually answer the question in your hurry to play the Nazi card...



Is burning Mein Kampf wrong?

As to the consequences,there should be none as sane people wouldn't murder or attack people over such stupidity.
There should be no war period. That doesn't mean that that is the way it is.

I wouldn't burn any book.
But then again I can read.

You however can't, apparently.

If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else?"


“Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets."


"You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you."

Smart man said these things. Maybe you should listen.
That's nice...you should realise I support the man's right to burn this book not necessarily him actually doing it.
