As Muslims it would not occur to us to burn a Bible or Torah.
We do not believe these books (in their present form) are the truth, but we accept there are elements of truth in them so we have some respect for them.
So why do right wing Christians burn the Qur'an? If you are secure in your faith why would you do that? How deeply childish and intolerant.
Also, if you believe in God you are taking a massive gamble because you are literally burning the Word of God which will have dire spiritual and afterlife consequences for you.
You think you're setting fire to a book but in reality you are setting fire to yourself.

Family of teenage e-scooter rider Reuben Abakah sues Transport for London over his death.
19-year-old Reuben was struck by a tram travelling at 37mph while crossing the Waddon Marsh West footpath in Croydon on 22 August 2022.
He had his hood up and did not slow down as he entered the crossing. He died in hospital three days later.
His family claims the tram driver failed to keep a proper lookout, failed to drive at a safe speed, and failed to use audible warnings and brakes effectively.
They are seeking damages in excess of £200,000.
Reuben’s father Frederick Woode said: “I know nothing can bring Reuben back, but I believe the tram should not have been travelling as fast as it was. The crossing should also be altered so that pedestrians like Reuben do not have their backs to approaching vehicles.”

@Ped_Patrol @shuamundy This is dirt. This is not people. This should go back to the trash heaps of the third world

🚨 🇫🇷 ALERTE INFO : Un homme de 65 ans, qui se revendique ouvertement « raciste et fier », a transformé un quartier tranquille en terrain de chasse à l’enfant de couleur.
Dimanche après-midi à Espaly-Saint-Marcel, il est sorti avec sa carabine à plomb et a poursuivi un groupe d’enfants de 6 à 11 ans en hurlant :
« Dehors les Noirs et les Arabes ! »
Il a tiré à plusieurs reprises. Un petit garçon de 10 ans a été touché au mollet.
Les gamins couraient en zigzag, terrorisés, pendant que ce sexagénaire les traquait comme du gibier.
Une habitante sous le choc : « C’était une véritable chasse à l’enfant de couleur… et pourtant je n’aime pas ce mot : un enfant est un enfant. »
Comment en est-on arrivé là ?
