Because the redneck trash doing this would throw a temper tantrum if someone did it to a bible. It should be permitted, but come on -- we're adults here. This is nothing more than a giant, "Fuck you" to muslims.
For the record, I don't find burning any books or the flag to be offensive -- I just don't get wrapped up in silly symbols.

- tomjen3 16y agoThe problem with burning bibles is that it would get you marked as a supporter of Islam. What do you burn when you hate both Islam and Christianity?
- BigZaphod 16y agoI'd suggest not burning anything.
- oiuygtfrtghyju 16y agoThe Torah? Well - they started it! Edit: Apparently the good reverend was also promising to burn copies of the Talmud (presumably burning the Torah would remove all those useful passages about gays)
- ComputerGuru 16y agoTo the contrary - in Islam the Bible is also a Holy Book, and Jesus is also upheld and respected as a prophet, and given the same due respect as Prophet Muhammad.
- smallblacksun 16y agoNo, he is not given the same respect as Muhammad. If he were, Muslims would be grossly offended by the images of Jesus in every church and Christian store in the world, like they are when images of Muhammad are drawn.
- DJN 16y agoCare to cite your sources on that one?
- smallblacksun 16y agoSource on what? I made 3 claims: 1. Muslims are offended by images of Mohammad. Do you really need a source for this? 2. There are images of Jesus in churches and Christian stores. Again, do you rally need a source for this? 3. Muslims are not offended by those images of Jesus. If you are claiming that they are offended by them, then the burden of providing sources is on you.
- MartinCron 16y agoI've decided that for my 9/11 barbecue, I'm going to make it stritctly BYOBTB (bring your own book to burn) so we can try to offend everyone. Me? I'm burning my copy of Team Foundation Server 2005 Hands-on-Guide, of course.
