On the Proposed Quran Burning

Written by Andrew Walker | Sep 8, 2010 1:49:39 PM

We at Mere-O, seeking to embody a robust Christian orthodoxy coupled with sound social engagement, hereby condemn the proposed Quran burning by a church in Florida whose name we will not dignify by specifying. In an age where religious discourse is at fever-pitch levels, we denounce this act as not only contrary to the Christian practice of neighbor love, but an unnecessary provocation that incites further violence and religious persecution.
