Only a freak coinkydink if he had been using the bible for outhouse paper. I knew a feller' once who used up his Sears and roebuck pages (wife was a terrible cook). He took a bible in there, mostly for good intentions but the light through those little moons is pretty dim. On one late night run from toxic tummy overload with a chaser of fartburn he accidentally wiped with one of the Psalms. He stepped in chicken poo on his way back to the shack. chicken poo is nasty.
Your friend having burned the bible to be funny will probably spontaneously combust and go to hell. he may look cool now but I bet if I sat a lemonade stand next to him for eternity I would make a lots of quarters.

People don't differentiate between God and Religion. Many times, one has nothing to do with the other. I think that man created the, "sign from God" stuff. There was no sign from God when priests were molesting children, so why should there be one from burning a bible?

I've burned two Bibles in my lifetime. Both were old and had years of use, and were completely worn out with pages falling out.
I don't know of any official religious practice for disposing of a worn out Bible, so I figured it was entitled at least the same respect as an American flag, so I burned it under the standard etiquette for burning a desecrated flag. I scattered the ashes in the planter at my church, so that they could still bring life to part of creation.
Jeez, am I a dork or what!

I think it ok, becaue the bible has been modified by the whims of man kind for many times through out history and there are thousane millions copies of it. It has the title of GOD MESSAGES, but that is a mere book of human invention. Plus there are so much laws of universe (Science) arnt recorded in the bible. It shall not be considered a serious guilt.

Doggie-doo is easier to get rid of than religious conditioning though both stink...no problem I'd say, doggie-doo shoe is just a mishap and a temporary condition.

If he was cool , he probably just needed the fire to warm up, that`s why he burned it , as for the dog turds, I`m not too sure, could have been a sign from above....or maybe below.
Do you really care?....honestly

You need other friends. There is no reason to do such a thing. Book burning isn't cool - I don't care what is between the covers.

The book he burned was just paper. The Word of God is alive and invincible to your friend's pyromania tendencies.

Burning any holy scriptures in disrespect is an immoral act.
