Interesting. Calling a spade a spade. (SEE NEWS ITEM BELOW) //////////////////////// Please send the following URL to that Church. They will see the PRODUCT of KORAN in action. When the Muslims are in sufficient numbers in the US such beatings will be common sight in streets just as they are in PAKISTAN, BANGLADESH AND AFGHANISTAN. If this is 2010 one can imagine how brutally they set upon the Hindus and SIKHS in Pakistan in 1947 (PARTITION) since we are all marked as KAFIRS in this KORAN.////////// BY THE WAY, CAN ONE SEE A SINGLE CHURCH OR A SNGLE COPY OF BIBLE IN SAUDI ARABIA? THE "DEVILS" WILL CONFISCATE IT AND BURN IT. ///////////////// MUSLIMS AMONG THEMSELVES (Islam being a religion of peace): http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/article576711.ece ===============/////////////// August 20th, 2010 ////////////// Comments (719 comments) /////////// ///////// Religious leaders speak out against International Burn a Quran Day////////// Religious leaders in Gainesville, Florida, have planned a Gathering for Peace, Understanding and Hope, in response to a local church's International Burn a Quran Day.////////// "We feel compelled to raise our voices to proclaim that the action the Dove World Outreach Center is proposing is absolutely wrong and counter to the life and teaching of the Jesus whom we love, follow and call savior and Lord," Senior Minister Dan Johnson of Trinity United Methodist Church said, in a note posted on his church's website Wednesday. ///////////// As part of the Gainesville Interfaith Forum - made up of Christians, Muslims, Jews and Hindus - Trinity Church will host the event September 10, the notice said, the night before the planned Quran burning. /////////// "Our goal is to foster understanding, mutual respect and peace, while recognizing and appreciating our own particular faith understandings," Johnson said./////////// The nondenominational Outreach Center said it will host the Quran-burning event on the ninth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks. The group said it will remember 9/11 victims and take a stand against Islam. With promotions on its website and Facebook page, it invites Christians to burn the Muslim holy book at the church from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. //////////// Wednesday, the city of Gainesville denied a burn permit to the center, said Bob Woods, City of Gainesville spokesman. //////////// "It was a question of public safety," said Woods. "The Gainesville Fire Department has notified the center through a letter," he said.//////////// But that isn't stopping the church. The Gainesville Sun reported that, in an e-mail newsletter sent out Wednesday, the church announced: "City of Gainesville denies burn permit - BUT WE WILL STILL BURN KORANS."////////// Gene Prince, the interim chief of Gainesville Fire Rescue, told the Sun on Wednesday that under the city's fire prevention ordinance, an open burning of books is not allowed. He said if the church goes ahead with its plan, it will be fined. ///////////// And the church's intentions aren't the issue. "It wouldn't matter what the book is they're burning," Deputy Chief Tim Hayes told the Sun./////////// "We believe that Islam is of the devil, that it's causing billions of people to go to hell, it is a deceptive religion, it is a violent religion and that is proven many, many times," Dove World Outreach Center Pastor Terry Jones told CNN's Rick Sanchez last month. ///////////// Jones wrote a book titled "Islam is of the Devil," and the church sells coffee mugs and shirts featuring the phrase. /////////// On the church's website, a section details "Ten Reasons to Burn a Koran." /////////// The Islamic advocacy group Council on American-Islamic Relations called on Muslims and others to host "Share the Quran" dinners to educate the public during the month-long fast of Ramadan beginning in August. In a news release, the group announced a campaign to give out 100,000 copies of the Quran to local, state and national leaders. ///////////// "American Muslims and other people of conscience should support positive educational efforts to prevent the spread of Islamophobia," said CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper in the release. //////////// The National Association of Evangelicals, the nation's largest umbrella evangelical group, issued a statement urging the church to cancel the event, warning it could cause worldwide tension between the two religions./////////// "The NAE calls on its members to cultivate relationships of trust and respect with our neighbors of other faiths. God created human beings in his image, and therefore all should be treated with dignity and respect," it said in the statement. ///////////// ==================== /////////////// MUSLIMS AMONG THEMSELVES (Islam being a religion of peace): http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/article576711.ece //////////////// 000000000
