Mohammed (saw) did not teach us to sware at non-muslims or burn them. You (sheraz) are reflecting muslims when u say things like that.
As for them burning a Quran. Look at it this way. The Quran is a word of Allah. It is not Allah. The book is not worthy of being worship. When the burn the book, they are only burning paper. But when we break their idols, its their god that is in that idol or is represented.
I mean look at their sorry state...look at kashmir. They call it a cease fire yeat their troops are being killed. They are killing their oen people (the sikhs) and pretend that Muslims did it. They burn quran and fight with their own 140 Millions. How can actions like this be sustainable. basiclly they cant. If the hindu population wants civil war, they will get it! And we will come to the help to the Muslims.
So what are the conclousions here, basicly when taliban destroy Idols there are showing that these idols have no power (which is true). This in turn makes the budhists and idol worshipers angry. Making them angry makes the west which promotes 'religious tolerence' (for eveyry religion except Islam) angry and they have an excuse to bash muslims again. This gives an oppertunity for our hindu friends to dis islam and burn copies of the Quran thereby almost causing civil war in mother india, i.e. mother india not has one arm cut of as well as the leg that was cut off in 1947.
I mean, i think that the taliban should have not done this but at the end of the day it is ONLY stone, which is given a look to represent something that is supposed to be powerfull. No people worship it in Afghanistan so the govt there is not doing anything bad to the public in this regard, They only have to ans to their own people.
As for destroing idols in general, i mean what can idol do. They are mans creations and man should relaise that. If there was no man to create there would be no idols and therefore no god that was dreamt of that 'god'. 'gods creates man -> man creates image of 'gods' so if there was no man there would be no image of 'gods'. So woukd there be a 'god'. Think about it....
