In protest of what it calls a religion "of the devil," a nondenominational church in Gainesville, Florida, plans to host an "International Burn a Quran Day" on the ninth anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks.
The Dove World Outreach Center says it is hosting the event to remember 9/11 victims and take a stand against Islam. With promotions on its website and Facebook page, it invites Christians to burn the Muslim holy book at the church from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
"We believe that Islam is of the devil, that it's causing billions of people to go to hell, it is a deceptive religion, it is a violent religion and that is proven many, many times," Pastor Terry Jones told CNN's Rick Sanchez earlier this week.
The Islamic advocacy group Council on American-Islamic Relations called on Muslims and others to host "Share the Quran" dinners to educate the public during the monthlong fast of Ramadan beginning in August. In a news release, the group announced a campaign to give out 100,000 copies of the Quran to local, state and national leaders.
"American Muslims and other people of conscience should support positive educational efforts to prevent the spread of Islamophobia," said CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper in the release.
The National Association of Evangelicals, the nation's largest umbrella evangelical group, issued a statement urging the church to cancel the event, warning it could cause worldwide tension between the two religions.

That is not correct Qura'an never says kill unmuslims, Qura'an said that for the very old wars between Muslims and unmuslims (who were fighting them at that time). Qura'an says: ' Don't hurt any human, animal or even a tree"
Osama Ben Laden is one of George Bush's friend and he did that to help USA entering Middle East countries>

Terry Jones is a CULT LEADER not a pastor nor a true christian!!! He says that Islam is evil and that he has to do something? he is full of shit. If he truly believes he has to do something then he should take his christian fake ass to those countries and preach!! oh wait, he wont because his real purpose is to provoke Muslims and to get attention in the media!!!
