Pastor Terry Jones' Plan to Burn Qur'ans

 ***

 

I fully support freedom of speech, but burning copies of the Qur'an on 9/11 is a bad idea. No matter how you look at it, it is wrongheaded and destined to fan the flames of divisiveness and violence. Pastor Terry Jones says his "message" is not intended for "the moderate Muslim," but his planned action (burning copies of the book considered holy by all Muslims) is inconsistent with that claim.
