Interesting news from Florida

Remember that Minister who was going to burn a copy of the Koran this Saturday in remembrance of 9/11? From Breitbart/Associated Press:
Fla. minister cancels burning of Qurans on 9/11
The minister of a Florida church said he has canceled plans to burn copies of the Quran because the leader of a much-opposed plan to build an Islamic Center near ground zero has agreed to move its location. The agreement couldn't be immediately confirmed.

The Rev. Terry Jones said Thursday that Americans oppose the mosque being built at the location and that Muslims do not want the Quran burned. He said instead of his plan to burn the books on Saturday to mark the ninth anniversary of 9/11, he will be flying to New York to speak to Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf about moving the mosque.

"We are, of course, now against any other group burning Qurans," Jones said during a news conference. We would right now ask no one to burn Qurans. We are absolutely strong on that. It is not the time to do it."
And this from a guy whose church has about 50 members. Talk about wanting to be a big player. Again, isn't Pride one of the Seven Deadly? Posted by DaveH at September 9, 2010 8:12 PM
