Operation Save America and the Koran
I agree with Operation Save America's views on abortion and homosexuality. They are sins. Period. In terms of Islam, while I have profound disagreements with Islamic theology, I must say I object to the notion of OSA burning a Koran as they did last Tuesday in Jackson, MS. Regardless of the reasons given by OSA, this simply serves to divide us. Muslims see it as an insult. Period. It only serves to divide those who are pro-life and it allows opportunities for the pro-aborts to allege that prolifers are "intolerant." There is no justification for their action.
From what I understand, Operation Save America objects to the way Islam portrays Jesus. They do not portray Him as God but rather as a prophet. Furthermore, they put the prophet Muhammad ahead of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I object to this as well. But this objection can be done in a respectful manner that addresses the point of contention while not offending the other side. Burning a Koran is certainly NOT going to win converts to Christianity. Aren't we called by Jesus to win souls for Him?
