In some cases, the accused was considered innocent if they survived the test, or if their injuries healed; in others, only death was considered proof of innocence. (If the accused died, they were often presumed to have gone to a suitable reward or punishment in the afterlife, which was considered to make trial by ordeal entirely fair.) |

I understand where people are coming from, historically book burning is seen as a very dangerous corrosive and aggressive act by christianity. But my point is that, all this will do is make more people read the koran, and i mean ACTUALLY READ the Koran. A lot of people are about to find out just how much BULLSHIT is in that book.

Quoting: AtheistThat why turns into a curiosity about the book being burned, what is in it that would make people behave that way? In my opinion this much attention on the book is a GOOD thing, as it will make people read it. What really cemented me into an atheist was when i actually sat down and started to read the bible for the first time. I would be dead against destorying ALL religious books that exist, because historically i think they are important. But this is not what is happening here, this is not fahrenheit 451, this is not about corrupt goverments destorying knowledge to dumb us down, we have more information available than ever with the internet, lets be honnest. This is a huge advertisment for ISLAM, people who are open minded will read the Koran and THINK, Jeeze this is even more full of bullshit than the BIBLE, these muslims are not exotic, mysterious and deserve respect, they are a bunch of complete fuck-tards. they need harsh criticism like christianity and the catholic church does. My 2 Cents. Salman Rushdie People in fear don't believe in reality , but in this what in their opinion should be. |
