People will do batshit crazy shit if they think God wants them to.
And unfortunately there are so many gods…
There’s some overlap though. Lots of different names for the same entity.
People say the Islamic god and the Christian god are the same god, but Christians and Muslims can’t even agree on what their god is within their own religions, hence all the sectarianism, so I don’t really buy that.
Don’t forget Judaism. God, Yahweh and Allah are all the same deity, yet look how much bloodshed has been spilled over which one interpreted things correctly…
Which one? Catholics got 5 major gods, and like hundreds of minor ones. Prots got 4 major gods. Muslims have two major and a bunch of minor ones.
That like asking if movie Superman is the same character as comic book Superman. It’s entirely a matter of opinion.
And all equally fictional
So it’s not ok to burn a book but it’s ok to burn a building.

It is not okay to burn your own book but it is okay to burn somebody else’s building
Or crash planes into it.

So they have zero confidence in their own god to punish Sweden or coran burners.
I call it “fragile religiosity” or “weak faith”.
It’s more that conservatives in general think an attack on something they like is a personal attack on themselves.
personally i like burned corns
This must have been an unexpected turn of events to everyone.
