Why doesn't that church burn transcripts of Jerry Falwell's hateful rant after 9/11 instead?
Instead of the Quran being burned, what if people printed out the little speech Jerry Falwell gave right after 9/11, where he actually blamed the attacks on gays, feminists, and abortion, and burn that?

"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way--all of them who have tried to secularize America--I point the finger in their face and say "you helped this happen." "

Just picture for a second, slips of paper with that quote being tossed into a fire.

What kind of message would that send?

2. Slips of paper with words on them put into water.

Is part of the old Priest hood in ancient Egypt, it was thought to be a form of spell casting back then.


I would guess, pagen rituals would have a similar thing for fire, although I don't believe in that stuff.
