A Florida church is holding a demonstration on September 11, which will feature the burning of the Koran. This small 50-person church has managed to rile up a bunch of people, including General David Petraeus, who denounced the decision, and Glenn Beck, who weighed in while on vacation.

Here are some excerpts from Glenn Beck's new blog.

"What is wrong with us? It?s just like the Ground Zero mosque plan. Does this church have the right? Yes. Should they? No. And not because of the potential backlash or violence. Simply because it is wrong. The more I reflect on what happened on 8/28 the more I realize the amazing power of GOOD."

"Burning the Koran is like burning the flag or the Bible. You can do it, but whose heart will you change by doing it? You will only harden the hearts of those who could be moved."

"Let us rise above the current levels and elevate ourselves and our country. The only thing this act would prove is that you CAN burn a Koran. I didn?t know America was in doubt on that fact."
