Pastor To Host Halloween Bible-burning Event
What do you think about this Pastor who plans to burn all heretical books including all the versions of the Bible except the King James Version?
QUOTE A North Carolina pastor plans to host a Halloween event at his church to burn heretical books. At the top of the list - the Bible.
Pastor Marc Grizzard claims the King James version of the Bible is the only true word of God, and that all other versions are "satanic" and "perversions" of God's word.
On Halloween night, Grizzard and the 14 members of the Amazing Grace Baptist Church will set fire to other versions of the scripture, as well as music and books by Christian authors.
"We are burning books that we believe to be Satanic," Grizzard said.
The list will include books written by "a lot of different authors who we consider heretics, such as Billy Graham, Rick Warren"¦ the list goes on and on," Pastor Grizzard said.
Also on the pastor's list of heretical authors - Mother Teresa, according to a full list that was previously available at the Amazing Grace Baptist Church's Web site. The Church's Web site is no longer available..

Pastor To Host Halloween Bible-burning Event Beliefs Religious General
I totally agree, there is absolutely no good reason to burn books, be they offensive or evil or stupid or politically inflammatory or whatever else; if anything, religious texts of all faiths should be preserved and studied for further understanding of "God" and faith and ourselves. What a horrible, horrible action by someone who should know so much better, and all the uninformed people following his lead. So sad.

QUOTE (From Report)On Halloween night, Grizzard and the 14 members of the Amazing Grace Baptist Church
Only 14 members? Looks to me like this Pastor is just looking for a way to increase his membership using book burnings and some reporter bought into helping him achieve that.
