Baptist Church Declaired It Would Burn Bibles on Halloween
 

A little late, I know. But regardles of whether or not they carried out their plan... WTF? :rolleyes:

(ETA: I just spotted the line "bonfire of the profanities" in the article. That would have made a much better thread title. Dang!)

Damn, to think there would have been a few less bibles in the world.

Oh GD, please don't turn into one of *those* atheists.

A church burning bibles, that's something I didn't think I would ever hear. Then again some of the southern baptists are quite a radical group.

You're right, I appologize.


"Fewer", not "less". Not believing in god is no excuse for bad grammar, thanks for catching that. :p

I wonder what would happen if a group annouced they were doing that with a stack of Qurans.

I'd consider them equally looney.

If it helps any, if anybody wants to bring to me holy texts of any sort, so long as the individual copy does not have unique artifact value, I'll be happy to burn it in a non-denominational ceremony.

I ran the famous Mohammed cartoons from a few years ago on my LJ, but nobody bothered to come kill me.
