Quote
Controversial US pastor Terry Jones has burned more copies of the Koran and a depiction of the prophet Mohammed to protest the imprisonment in Iran of a Christian clergyman, The Gainesville Sun reported.

The newspaper said Jones and another pastor, who carried out their protest in front of their church in Gainesville, Florida on Saturday, demanded the release of Christian pastor Youcef Nadarkhani from an Iranian prison.


Yeah, that oughtta do it, Terry.

that guy loves the spotlight almost as much as Sharpton and Jackson and Phelps.
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

Publicity boy preacher does not understand that we recognize he does not give a rat's backside about the prisoner, but it looking for only himself.

Maybe some of the jihad boys will visit him some evening.......

If he really had a backbone, he should travel to Iran and get his buddy out of prison himself!

i wonder how he'll play it if they kill the prisoner to send a message back? another one of those no branches family trees
It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

This. When his whole Koran burning thing was going on hot and heavy, I suggested he hop a plane to Baghdad and burn a few there. I find burning ANYONE's religious text offensive and think the burner deserves whatever retaliation they get.

On a side note, any way we could convince Phelps & the Westboro types to protest Travyon Martin's funeral?.....
Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

Less.

Didn't Jesse actually get a hostage released from somewhere a few years ago? This clown is likely to get a beheading for the guy he says he wants to help.

So it will be HIS fault that some islamofascists kill someone? Tell me, if I go on a rampage because some overseas nutter burns a Bible or uses it as toilet paper, will you blame the overseas nutter . . . or me?

I see this guy as a useless publicity hound trying to put himself in the spotlight by behaving childishly, but don't blame him for the murderous actions of kill-crazy Moslem terrorists on the other side of the world - as we see every single day, they're perfectly capable of committing the worst atrocities without using his silly Koran burning as an excuse.
