    Burning books is wrong. It was wrong when the first emperor of China burnt history books, it was wrong when Caliph Omar burnt all books that were not the Koran, it was wrong when the Nazi's did it and wrong when American bible-belters burnt The Origin of Species. In the terms of religion, those religions wishing to supplant others always seek to destroy the traces. Rome replaced temple idols with their own gods, Christians regularly built on older sacred sites and burnt those who disagreed with them and Islam turned churches and sacred areas into mosques. The history of every religion is a blood soaked record of intolerance and persecution, bent on killing or converting all differing opinion. It is only when established that religions start to promote themselves as 'peaceful and loving' but the hatred and violence is still buried in their texts.

    The proposed book burning is a further extension of the promotion of hatred from one religion to another and such actions should have no place in a civilised world.
