Isn't it odd that American symbols/icons that represent America should be unrinated and deficated on as acceptable, and even burned to show offense of the same, BUT Americans must/have to be respectful of the Koran and Islamic customs ? Seems we must accept disrespect to America and its Judeo-Christian heritage, but must respect Islam that hates us. Is this just a indication of a self-loatheing society like the time of Rehoboam ? God WAS NOT AMUSED.

I suppose ONEGod believes in the trinity, making his credibility in religious matters zero.
You're about as sharp as a watermellon in peak ripeness, aren't you?right to burn the flag. And guess what? They should have that right. Free speech. So long as they own the flag and are burning it in a safe manner, what's the problem?
I don't think anyone said we should pass a Constitutional Amendment to make Koran defiling illegal. I just thought the soldiers acted with repulsive indifference to their prisoners' faith, and I thought it was even lower that they should do it in such a manner that the offended can't stand up for themselves. When was the last time somebody threw Christians in jail with no charges and peed on Bibles?
I think the point is that representatives of our government, including soldiers, should display at least minimal respect for the Koran and Islam. Those over-seas who are showing overt disrespect for the icons of America are not generally representatives of a government.

I gave this a 1 because ONEGod is right here :P"Cartoon Wars Part II" was a good example of this: they showed George Bush and Jesus Christ shitting on each other and the american flag... but in the same episode, Comedy Central wouldn't allow them to show Mohammed handing Peter Griffin (from Family Guy) a helmet with a fish on it.
What about an administration, supported by the various fundie groups, that allowed and condoned the goings-on at Abu Ghraib (until it leaked out, of course, then they scape-goated a couple lowly privates to use as an 'example')as well as the continuing horror show at Guantanamo Bay?
<<< Seems we must accept disrespect to America >>>
Let's be real here.
You're a puppet of the dumbest goverment and philophosy that has ever existed outside actual religion. People are lying to you.
When dealing with the insane, it's best to neither be provoked by them nor provoke them. The insane muslims that you'd piss off would likely attempt an attack. Besides, if you look at old U.S. foreign policy, they're probably justified for being a bit cross with us.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
