Besides, our model is the early christians, they had a great old time burning books. I think one time they counted they cost of the books as well. Lets have thousands of good old book burnings. Bring the marshmallows!

Don't forget, before the invention of the printing press, a single book was REALLY valuable. Burning a book was akin to burning an original oil painting, or a living room furniture set, or a grand piano. The knowledge actually contained in the book was merely incidental to its worth.
the early christians, they had a great old time burning books.
'Early' - you mean back around 1933 in Europe?
I'm really glad none of these book burnings happened with me knowing it was going to happen. The urge to go, hold up a Bible and chuck it in would be overwhelming!
It should be done. The message is more important then the media
"Besides, our model is the early christians,..."
so you'd be happy being eaten alive by one or more members of the feline family? I don't think they give a crap about the marshmallows....the lions...not the early christians.
and you guys think YOU are persecuted. Wishful thinking, huh? This "dad" person is sick.

I couldn't agree more. As long as only one type of book is allowed to be burned:

You said it, I didn't.
Now you see how unjustifiable yor thinking is, dad? And every fundie like you, whose very way of thinking is unjustifiable.
Ever read the book "Fahrenheit 451"? In the end, literature - and what such represents - is preserved by people who each memorise one book. You can't destroy ideas. But superstitions can. By superior ideas, based on facts .
Lots of books are good to burn! Christian school textbooks from Bob Jones University/Pensacola Christian College, Books of Mormon, the Bible, etc. You just have to find which ones are good.

no book should be burned. to burn a book is to deny information or other ideas. if you think about it if they did not burn the great library of Alexandria or kill Hypatia We wouldn't have had the dark ages. we would be far more advanced at this point than we are right now... people like you make me wish i was permitted to kill..
i wish you would DIE IN A GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING FIRE!
Your faith is a weak, fragile thing, if the only way you can validate it is by destroying every last competing idea.
Fuck you. Fuck you and the horse you rode in on.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
