And the liberals are outraged at this Koran burning. They are outraged about the inflammatory nature of this, and how it will provoke reactions in the Muslim world, etc. They say that while this church has the right to burn a Koran, that they shouldn’t, out of respect for the religion of Islam.

That’s the liberal view of burning a Koran. These are the same arguments that we have heard in the Mosque at Ground Zero controversy. But in that case, the liberals are on the other side of the issue of showing respect and having a right to do something, but deciding not to so as not to provoke reactions.

I will never understand the liberal mindset. It’s almost as if whatever a Christian is doing is wrong, and whatever a Muslim is doing is right, in their view.

That's pretty much it.

Except that burning copies of the Koran is hardly consistent with what Jesus taught in the Golden Rule ("Do unto others what you would have them do unto you") or what Paul taught when he said, "You're against idolatry, but do you rob temples?" or the example Paul gave on Mars Hill when he remarked to the various religious folk there that he saw that they were very religious, that their poets were right when they said that in God we live and move and have our being and that we are all his offspring. He went on to point out the altar to "the unknown god" and said, "This is the one I want to talk to you about" and then told them about Jesus.

The liberals will always side with evil. It is how I categorize their support for the ground zero mosque.

To be sure, there’s nothing in the Bible that commands Christians to be burning Korans or any heretic work (the closest thing is an incident, recorded without comment, where a former magician burned his own magic books). In the American political system, there is nothing to forbid these people from burning books belonging to them either. But is it spiritually wise? It seems uncomfortably like trying to sass Satan.
