The fact that people wanted to burn a book belonging to another faith is wrong for many reasons, the main one being that they're supposed to be Christians and NOWHERE did Jesus tell us to Instill hate. We're taught to love, not to hate. Bearing in mind that we are of the "Flesh" and prone to make mistakes, I think forgiveness and understanding should be practised by everyone involved here.

Like the Danish Cartoons, burning of Holy qur'an has a political agenda. The Zionist, both Jewish and Christians, want to have a major clash between the Christian world and the Muslim world.

However, due to their huge ignorance - the great majority of Christians don't know that Holy Qur'an is the only divine book which glorifies both Jesus and his mother Mary. Holy Qur'an has even dedicated an entire Chapter (Surah Marriam) to Jesus' mother. Furthermore, Holy Qur'an calls the true followers of Jesus' message as "People of Book".
