Noted on the correction to the makeup of the Ka'aba. As far as the book goes, I was careful to say "respect", not "idolize". I would have gladly not mistreated their book in any way as a courtesy to them, but if they insist that I act as though it is my holy book when it is not, well, I'm now happy to dunk it in a bowl of urine and put it in an art show.
I don't respect books either. They're just pieces of paper.
Hey you think Maplethorpe could do a photograph of a Urine dunked Koran and get it on display with tax payer funding?.....We'll call it "Piss Mohammed"!
