I thank God for students that I learn to be humble and patient while imparting knowledge and be an influence to them.
There is a certain Baptist church in North Carolina that is going to have a book burning on October 31. What's strange about this book burning? They are burning various versions of the Bible that are considered by this church perversions of the "God ordained" Bible, the King James Version (KJV). Some of these "heretical" Bible versions are like the NIV, NKJV, Good News etc. On top of that they are burning books by contemporary Christian authors such as John Piper, James Dobson, Billy Graham etc. As well as "ungodly" music like rock, rap and pop, which is probably understandable, but also country, gospel, jazz and so on.
The funny thing is that open burning is prohibited by state laws but they are still going ahead with it. The church may be fined up to $25,000 for the apparently 40-strong congregation.
I don't know whether to label this as ironic or cannot see the wood for the trees.
