Quran burning: What's the problem?

What harm came from this that was not man-made? The Muslim protesters are the only ones upset. I don't hear anything from Allah. If it is so bad, why wouldn't Allah punish the ones who did the deed? It is a book, printed by men on paper made by men. Are you saying that Joe's Printing Company can manufacture items that are sacred to Allah? I don't get it.

    The funniest thing is that burning of Koran is the one of proper ways to dispose unneeded, worn out book.Unlike that psycho preacher last year, these books were set to be disposed, so American soldiers strictly followed Islam, lol

    @M S:Really? You never saw Muslims burning bibles? If youtube wasn't blocked from my office, I'd send you quite a few links

    ...Well I'm Muslim and I do believe in the Quran and respec it. However, if someone feels likeburning it, go straight ahead. It's disrespectful, but what can you do?

    BTW- we, Muslims, burn the quran when its damaged.. soooo in a way, theyre just saving the Quran from their hands :) .. people who go out of their way to disrespect something sacred are horrible

    I wouldnt lose a nights sleep over it though

    and I wuldnt burn the bible or the torah..

    The Quran teaches that Allah is the same god that Christians and Jews believe in, so technically anything that praises the glory of God The Father shouldn't be born. Plus, Allah means god in Arabic, which is the language of Islam.

    Good point. Likewise, Egyptian priests felt obligated to back up divine curses with manmade booby traps. However, I can't believe an officer would be so ignorant as to burn them in a garbage dump, even if they had been found to be defaced with extremist slogans (a point the protesters neglect to mention).

    we could do away with burning oil if we just had enough qurans.

    there might even be some bibles and a couple torahs that could be spared to help us achieve energy independence .

    Exactly so.

    It is a worthless book of myths and fairy tales, dictated by an illiterate pedophile.

    Every copy should be burned.

    you do not see Muslims abusing Bibles or Tanakh
