I remember a song I learned as a child and it went something like this...
Jesus said love everyone, treat them kindly too.
When your heart is filled with love, others will love you.
I guess its easier said than done.

Love Everyone
Why is this such a hard topic for mankind? I believe in God as do millions of people on this planet. I believe that we were put here for a purpose and given something called agency. We are given the choice to make our own decisions. Yes, I do believe that this pastor in FL has the right to burn the Koran (Quran). Yes, I do believe the Muslim community has the right to build a mosque near ground zero. But I also believe that both of these actions would be insensitive and self indulgent and would only serve the purpose of promoting more conflict and hatred.

I so agree with this! Seriously, I just keep seeing all the news about this and his bullheaded assertions that he will indeed burn it and I just think the same thing, "Fine. Burn it if you want, but why? You will prove nothing but spread more intolerance cause increased hatred between all parties." It all strikes me as quite ridiculous and hard to understand at all where he is coming from.
