Koran Burner Terry Jones was Kicked out of Germany

More scandals about Koran burner Pastor Terry Brown: He was kicked out of his German ministry in disgrace and fined by the government for lying about his education. You can read the details at The Guardian (UK).

Pastor Jones, Koran Burner, is also a Creepy Old Man

I guess we shouldn't be surprised to discover that Pastor Terry Jones, the man who plans to burn Korans on 9/11, is also a creepy old man. The Smoking Gun (a great resource for finding dirty laundry) found the DWOC Church Rulebook for the Dove World Outreach Center, and boy is it weird. It starts off with a bang:

"The goal of the Academy is for each student to develop a stabile [sic] lifestyle of Discipline in order to become a strong apostolic Fife [sic] Fold Minister..."

Ok, so maybe the man isn't good at spelling and grammar. So what? Maybe he's just a common guy trying to spread Jesus' word! Let's give him the benefit of the doubt, and read on... (By the way, from here forward I'll skip the "sic", because there are just too many! Assume the mistakes are his, not mine.)

• No back talking (pride), but asking for permission to speak
• When being confronted concerning a bad attitude or any other issue repentance and apology is expected instantly!
• Attitudes like pride, fear, resistance ... will be corrected instantly!
• Given orders, can not be changed...

Ok, so maybe he's barely literate and he likes strong discipline. I mean, he's a minister, teaching the gospel to students, right?

Well, not exactly. It seems they want to control every part of the students' lives.

• [Lunch] break ... is testing time
• Sweets, cake and things like that are not allowed
• No alcohol
• No eating out in restaurants
• Students will be put on the scale once a week to follow the tendency. Each student received his weigh goal, that must be reached, otherwise this category is failed.

Ok, so they're strict about diet. But surely they are family oriented, right? Wrong.

• During Academy you are not allowed to visit family members or friends or receive visits.
• ... wedding, funerals or Birthdays are no exception...
• No phone calls.
• Singles are not allowed to have romantic relitionships to the opposite sex.
• Family member working on the property, the students are suppose to have a healthy distance. ... Concentrate on the work ... there should not be anytime being left for small talk anyway.
• In order to obey God, we have to leave the family behind!

Ugh. This is the stuff cults are made of.

If I found one of my kids joining this cult,

Send Pastor Terry Jones to Afghanistan to Burn a Quran

I have the perfect solution for Pastor Terry Jones! Let's give him a ride to downtown Kabul in Afghanistan, and give him a Quran and a book of matches. Then we'll see just how committed to Christ and the Bible he really is!

I'll bet General Petraeus, who has strongly condemned Jones, would be happy to help out. Why, I'll bet Petraeus would love to give Jones a ride in a nice, fast jet straight from Florida to the front lines.

But maybe Petraeus doesn't want to rile things up in Afghanistan – who could blame him? So here's a better idea: Pakistan. It seems the United States Embassy in Pakistan has also condemned Jones for his self-centered, unpatriotic and foolhardy grandstanding. I'll bet they'd be glad to give him a ticket to Pakistan. The embassy could take Jones down to the center of Islamabad, hand him a Quran (they have a lot of Qurans in Pakistan) and a match, and let Jones do his grandstanding there!

It seems to me if Jones is really committed to Jesus and his Bible,
