Dragging Out the Soapbox...

Okay, here it is...my newest rant. Excuse me while I climb up on this thing...

WHY ARE SUPPOSED MEN OF GOD SUCH IGNORANT...IGNORANT...AND DID I SAY IGNORANT PEOPLE WHERE GOD IS CONCERNED.

I will now apologize for shouting, but I'm so danged mad right now I could spit.

If you've been watching the news recently, are you as outraged and saddened as I am, by the sheer audacity of people who profess to be the bastions of God's love?

First there is the whole Mosque at Ground Zero controversy. And let me be fair on this, I think the insensitivity is on both sides here. The general, Christian public should take a lesson from Jesus and practice tolerance, and understand that average run of the mill Muslim is no more a radical extremist than they are. The US was built on the concepts of religious tolerance...what happened??? As for the Muslims who are proposing the mosque...shame on you too. Knowing how sensitive a location Ground Zero is, why, why, why...in the name of your God and mine, do you press this issue. There are certainly many more suitable pieces of land you could choose from in New York. Pick one and move on!

And then there's Terry Jones and the congregants of his church and their "Burn a Koran Day" planned for this weekend. This man is ignorant and an abomination. Plain and simple. Get him OFF the media. Take away his spotlight. He does not deserve one ounce of attention, for his behavior. Interesting that he was a pastor in a Cologne, Germany church. Perhaps he learned his book burning skills from another infamous German. Just remember my dear friends, "Those who burn books, will eventually burn people."

'Nuf said.
