Would you want to throw a Bible into a Mosque like here?

[Miss Hepburn]

What do you think about what happened at a Colorado mosque...breaking of windows and throwing a Bible in?
Something you want to do?
What message does it give?
Do you think it accomplishes anything? And what?
Does it make you feel glad or disgusted that this happened?
Any down sides to this?
Would you want your church to take part in helping them fix the place? Or write an open letter in apology if Christians did this?

Haha, don' feel you need to ans these...just thoughts to aid any discussions.

Agree with tabletalk if I understood him correctly.

"Would you want your church to take part in helping them fix the place? Or write an open letter in apology if Christians did this?"

Throwing a bible in a window is a coward way of doing things. It takes no accountability and serves no real purpose other than hate. The action drives people away from God rather than draws them toward His mercy and forgiveness.

I wonder if a church in Ft. Collins will think of this...if it happens and is reported I'll keep us posted.

Thanks for your post.
I think a different question would be...
What does God think of this!
It is to Him that both "sides" will have to answer.
I am quite biased on the whole Muslim thing...I can understand why some would start retaliation. I have to watch my own attitude.
So the least I say the better.

Did this really happen? Did they catch who did it? Who did it?

Basic rule of our Faith! For God so Loved the World!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I die, I belong to God- If I Live I belong to God - so weather I Live or Die I belong to God!
Everything we see, smell,Touch, Taste was Created by God!
All Mankind was given a measure of Faith, what we choose to do with it, will be on us Individually, Pray this Prayer!! God teach me to love what You Love, and Teach Me to Hate what You Hate, and If He answers! then walk in it!
By the Way, the act of retribution, for not being like us is un-excusable! that is what others do! and we find it deplorable.

why are you asking? sheep don't have to tweak there sheep's clothing to be perceived as sheep, if they be sheep already, do they? only wolves need to tweak their sheep's clothing to be perceived as sheep.

I do believe my Catholic parish would develop a committee to discuss the issue and probably determine to send funds to help fix the Mosque, but it would no longer be needed because the Quaker Church i attend would have already rebuilt the entire section......it is just the type of people they are.

I don't know. It was the first thought that came to me when I first read this post a couple of weeks ago. A Bible, which could have been given to someone who was truly interested in the things of God, is thrown away into a mosque of hornets who could care less what the Bible says.

So Gods word will return to Him void in your opinion? The very people who you are always downing. cost the exact same price as you did. They are worth exactly the same to God as you are. He dies for them and loves them exactly the same as you.

Sounds like the witnessing style of several Christians i have known

ya, hornets and locusts can be perceived, imaginary, or they can be real, i guess
hornets can be stirred up too, see, if they are hornets, then why stir them up? i mean"ah, here are some hornets, let me just stir them up" ya, no hypocrisy there right
