like that will bother him. he's an attention whore - nothing more. he's no more a man of god than osama bin laden.

make me some tea: GaryPDX: This stupid twit is going to get people killed. We might have to fight a religious war after all because of this clown.

They're already raising hell about it over in Afghanistan.

Yea, something like this could inflame the moderate Islamic world. It's stupid to give this clown any publicity at all.

That free press is a biatch sometimes, ain't it?

If he is so convinced that what he does is right and Islam is evil, why don't we collect some money and buy him a one way ticket to Afghanistan? Preaching to US Christians seems a little bit redundant and a waste of talent. This man needs to be heard by the right people. Let us send him to the people he'd like to convince that their ways are wrong. He has nothing to fear as I'm sure THE LORD will protect him on this holy mission.

The State Department described as "un-American" plans by a controversial church to burn Korans ...

Did the State Department think it was "un-American" when the administration ordered the military to burn Bibles in Afghanistan?

That's a pretty excellent idea. Where do we donate?

We could set that up online. All we need is a Paypal account. People can donate 1-5 bucks. If he does not take the ticket we give the money to the NY Muslim community or something like that...

Well, it works for us pretty well. Not so much in Islamicland.

I'll throw in for the chloroform.

No need to hijack him. He'll be happy that somebody is going to give him a chance to do this. I don't think that he want's to look like a squirmy pansiy and chicken out once we give him the chance to convert THOUSANDS of heathens in a 3-4 week trip.

gilgigamesh: ParallelUniverseParking: No need to hijack him.

Sure there's no need. But there is plenty of want.

For me, anyway.

how about we start by collecting 1 buck each on a paypal account and see if we get the money together for a ticket. How much is a flight from Florida to Afghanistan anyway?

This guy and his "congregation" are genuinely horrible human beings.

What in the blue fark is a "Koran burning" supposed to accomplish, anyway? It's not like there's a limited supply of them. In some ways, this is no different than the fundamentalists that bought copies of the Harry Potter books to burn -- all that they accomplished was giving a nice chunk of change of J. K. Rowling. Nor is it different than when they attempt to buy up tickets to Marilyn Manson concerts so that your kids can't go -- these bands are typically more than willing to stay in town an extra day and put on another show.

All that these assholes are doing with their blind hatred and rage is inciting more blind hatred and rage from their brethren on the other side of the gulf of Isaac and Ishmael. Despite their protestations to the contrary, these idiots have far more in common with Islamic extremists than they would care to admit. And not only are they putting American troops at risk, they're making the possibility of another large-scale attack on American civilian interests more likely. They are wastes of protoplasm.

Round trips start at about 2800, one way would be less, but I doubt he'd accept it.

We tell him that if he does not take the ticket we donate the money to some group that works on improving US/Muslim relationships (suggestions?).

...
inciting more blind hatred and rage


They feed on it.

Since they have accomplished nothing that they can take pride in, and are basically horrid, pathetic little losers, the only way that they can feel good about themselves is by portraying someone else as even worse.

It's the same for racists, anti-Semites, jingoists, nationalists, bigots, male chauvinists, bullies and pretty much every other form of asshole.

The not-a-mosque at not-Ground-Zero would be my suggestion.

nothing that is only beneficial for a US muslim group only. that can be turned around and be interpreted in a way that this is just a pro-muslim thing in disguise. I know there is a group called "Atlantikbruecke" for Europe/US relations. Is there something like that for the middle east?

Hmmm...

American-Islamic Friendship Project (new window) perhaps?

I think that would be a good one. Nice find.

No worries. Let me know when the account is set up.

Obviously, Reverend Terry Jones wants to increase the size of his 50-member church. See, money really is the root of all evil.

Actually I do have an account with my fark e-mail address. Is there an easy way to set up a page with something like a pay pal donation script I can link to? I've never done this before (obviously).

Personally, I'd like to stand across the street from these rednecks and burn a Bible.

SavvyLemur: the worst part about the whole deal is that it serves absolutely no purpose. i simply can't understand where this pastor is coming from. he's gotta know it's not going to accomplish anything positive.

It will get him attention, and probably money, and those are what he wants.
