Here is a email that I sent to him today to try to get him to change his mind. I doubt it will work but I have to try before he causes great harm.
Dear Dr. Jones,
I am writing to ask you to stop your plans to burn the Koran. There are many reasons for this but the main ones are:
1. We are a nation of laws, the first amendment to the constitution of the US is freedom of religion. The same one that allows you to preach the gospel. Muslims are allowed to believe what they want and worship how they want and your provocative action will have very serious repercussions and will hurt the cause of Christ in the US for years to come. You will cause Muslims around the world to riot and to take violent acts against innocent Christians and our troops around the world. Their blood will be on YOUR hands Doctor! You are doing nothing but causing trouble and division in this this is NOT Godly nor Christ like!
2. Your freedom of speech does not protect this. You do not have the right to go into a theater and yell fire. That is what you are doing here, you will be insulting millions of Muslims who the vast majority have done nothing to you. It is a insult to them to desecrate the Koran or to talk about Allah or Mohamed. While I disagree with them and I pray for them to follow Jesus I believe in the constitution and allow them the rights we have also. To worship as they see fit and whom they want to. Who are you to take it upon yourself to inflame tensions like this, You are opening yourself to lawsuits for any damages from this. But mostly the harm it will do to Jesus holy name. We are called to turn the other cheek remember or did you not read that part of the bible? How do you feel when they burn our flag? How will you feel when they burn the bible which they will?
3. Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame, if what I think happens after this you will be remembered alright as a radical nut that gave a major black eye to Jesus!
I pray you come to your senses before you make more of a colossal mistake.
In the name of Jesus Christ
