The government turned up the pressure Tuesday on the head of a small Florida church who plans to burn copies of the Quran on Sept. 11, warning him that doing so could endanger U.S. troops and Americans everywhere.

But the Rev. Terry Jones insisted he would go ahead with his plans, despite criticism from the top U.S. general in Afghanistan, the White House and the State Department, as well as a host of religious leaders.

Jones, who is known for posting signs proclaiming that Islam is the devil's religion, says the Constitution gives him the right to publicly set fire to the book that Muslims consider the word of God.

The religious wars are the worst i have seen in my life..
May be it is a good thing? Muslims get upset with very little criticism or petty jokes about Islam. May be this will teach them to become more tolerant and to be ok with what others have to say or do with their religion.
But still burning one's holy book is not fair.Everybody has to learn to respect the feelings of other human too.

yes i agree with what lakshmi has said . one should respect religion.
It people are so intolerant about their religion it is there attitute. by damaging holy books do hurt them but it is not the solution to change their attitude..One should respect any holy book...
All religious communities have their fair number of zealots who do enough for their religion to earn it a bad name.
Why so called "GOOD" do "BAD" things????
