OH YES, a religion of peace. And remember don't draw a picture of their prophet either. The humans have to protect their omnipotent one

You must not insult the most insulting book ever written.

Another issue of ignorance here. The two men in question seem to have openly stepped on a Quran in a Mosque somewhere. Why did they do that? This is like asking for it. I'm reminded of the question of whether a person should go to prison for burning the American flag. So many people answer "yes." If nobody saw you burn it who would know? This is an important question. Here, knock this chip off my shoulder. I dare you.

I think it more likely someone merely said they did.
I posted that to Facebook and put my response there as well because I know there are some people who think like that there.
This is what they do when they can't handle people challenging their beliefs . . . . if you can't prove what you claim, then you have to murder those who disagree with you because you are to stupid to answer with science or logic. In fact, you can't answer with science or logic, because you can't prove shit . . . . all you can do is quote stupid verses and think that "proves it". These fools think that someone who wrote a book 1,388 years ago knew better than all the scientists, logicians, and modern thinkers today! This is only proof of your ignorance and stupidity! You can't prove it, so you resort to violence.

Bangladesh, a county run by a military junta disguised as a democracy, at least for the rich and quiet intellectuals.

I step on a Bible and nobody says anything.
I step on a Quran and a bunch of murderous imbeciles want to kill me.
Enough said.
