BOOK BURNING IS HOT

Posted on Tuesday 5 December 2006

Harry Potter book burning goes very well indeed:

The fire so inflamed parishioners’ passions that, according to the Detroit Free Press, some of the 50 spectators proceeded to burn the Book of Mormon, a non-King James edition of the Bible, and even the Dan Aykroyd movie Coneheads. Turner regrets that things got out of control, but adds, “Since the burning, our ministry is growing and can seat another 400 members,” he says. “God has been blessing us.”

    I think Ray Bradbury hit the nail on the head: “He [Turner] sounds like a stupid man. He just shoots off his mouth, and he should just go somewhere, sit down and shut up.”

    I’m glad Ray Bradbury is still alive. Sometimes I forget that.
