And this is supposed to accomplish what exactly? While I believe that burning a Bible is disrespectful, you have the right to do that. Since a religious text is sacred to those that believe in such, you probably wouldn't have any issue if someone keyed your car, burned down your house, killed your dog, bent your mother over the oven and filled her up, right? While I don't think that someone truly of the Christian faith would do that, the subjectiveness as to what is truly sacred is apparent, so it probably won't be a big deal to you right. I think you're wasting your time, but that's just an opinion that I have. Now, with that said, how has Christianity been oppressive to you or is this just the cool thing to do these days?
When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property.(Exodus 21:20-21
Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ.(Ephesians 6:5
Christians who are slaves should give their masters full respect so that the name of God and his teaching will not be shamed. If your master is a Christian, that is no excuse for being disrespectful. You should work all the harder because you are helping another believer by your efforts. Teach these truths, Timothy, and encourage everyone to obey them.(1 Timothy 6:1-2
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way.(Leviticus 25:44-46
Yeah burning a bible is the same thing as someone keying your car, burning down your house, killing your dog, bending your mother over the oven and filling her up. To be honest that's some pretty vulgar thinking for such a high and mighty "christian".
