International 'Burn a Koran Day'

[BrettieAngell]

I heard that it was some heavy metal protest and we all had to burn a Kerrang....:whistling:

That gag has been already been done.

Yeah, he's got a congregation of 30 if he and his sheep, I mean congregation, want to burn the koran then let them get on with it.

BE better if someone slipped an explosive one in and blow him and his sheep to bits ... accidental like ;)

Obviously this is what the media wanted -

I've just downloaded the Koran, does anyone want me to burn them a copy? :unsure:

Thinking back to this story after I came across this article:

SCARY.

Yes, that's quite a cliche, in that it seems to happen quite a lot. I've had a similar (but more startling) conversation with an American in San Francisco. TBF she was only about 18 or 19, but she still asked (I can't remember in what context), "Do you have cars in England?". She then went on to say, "Does the Queen have absolute power in England?". Of course I replied, "Well, no, she has virtually none at all, otherwise it wouldn't be a democracy, would it?". She replied, "Oh, you have democracy in England, do you?".

It was rather difficult to know how to respond. I just started to imagine present day, yet Victorian England (well, London - London/England - same thing) where we go round in horse and carriage amongst the swirling fog etc etc.

Bewildering really.

It's bewildering that you expect anyone to believe that this exchange actually happened.
