Varadarajan on Quran Burning

Varadarajan weighs in on the nut job who intends to barbecue a stack of qurans/korans:http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2010-09-07/terry-jones-burn-the-koran-pastor-wrecks-free-speech-debate/.  I pretty much agree with him.  The only other point concerning this is why are not more Muslims embarrassed by this?  That generals, politicians, Christian ministers, etc. are all pleading for the idiot pastor to stop this because it will incite the followers of a religion to commit murder over burned books, just like they do when their prophet is depicted in a cartoon.  Similar pleas and measures do not have to go out for the sake of other religions when bibles or flags are burned or Jews murdered --again, it's this conversion by the sword Islamic deal which the world must tread lightly around.  Again, would enjoy--for once--seeing "moderate" Muslims in the United States and other regions renounce violence above an occasional whisper or candle lighting at a Unitarian peace conference.  Still waiting.
