The media will have blood on their hands if this latest publicity-stunt from Jones makes it to the International media and Afghans riot and kill for weeks over it.
This sonofabitch is already responsible for at least twenty deaths. I think he ought to grow a set and go to Iran or Afghanistan to burn the next one so he can show them personally how he feels.
Exactly! If Jones does not have the courage to burn the book in front of those who he is protesting against, he is just another coward preaching to his choir!
Christians didn't kill anybody. They complained alright....but that's all. And that's why South Park continues to dog Jesus and leave Muhammad alone. They KNOW who will threaten to kill them and who won't.
That was the OT, i.e "the law", we are no longer under the law, due to Jesus. You, as I, are a sinner; you lie, are greedy, are prideful, are arrogant, get jealous, etc. You, like I are a wretch. Good news, despite the fact that you should be condemned, God loves you and me so much, despite the fact that we do not deserve his love that he gave us a "get outta jail free" card, his name is Jesus. There is nothing you can do to make God not love you.
Sucks to live during Old Testament times!
Come to think of it, sucked to live during New Testament times too!
Peter Kills Two People
There was also a man named Ananias who, with his wife, Sapphira, sold some property. He brought part of the money to the apostles, but he claimed it was the full amount. His wife had agreed to this deception. Then Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart? You lied to the Holy Spirit, and you kept some of the money for yourself. The property was yours to sell or not sell, as you wished. And after selling it, the money was yours to give away. How could you do a thing like this? You weren't lying to us but to God." As soon as Ananias heard these words, he fell to the floor and died. Everyone who heard about it was terrified. Then some young men wrapped him in a sheet and took him out and buried him. About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. Peter asked her, "Was this the price you and your husband received for your land?" "Yes," she replied, "that was the price." And Peter said, "How could the two of you even think of doing a thing like this – conspiring together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Just outside that door are the young men who buried your husband, and they will carry you out, too." Instantly, she fell to the floor and died. When the young men came in and saw that she was dead, they carried her out and buried her beside her husband. Great fear gripped the entire church and all others who heard what had happened. (Acts 5:1-11 NLT)
There is no reason to believe that any gods are anything other than this same process.
Didn't you just have like 15 posts deleted for being "off topic?" and then you come right back with the same thing? You're a defiant little bugger, aren't you? lol

So Peter killed them with his words? Wow, that's some powerful stuff. lol They were trying to lie to God, their hearts were evil; they like the Muslims in this thread were solely responsible for their deaths.
