understandably

I do not understand. Please explain it to me.

EDIT: I'm certainly not arguing that burning books is good. I am, however, saying that it is morally acceptable to destroy your own property, and there is nothing sacred about books that exempts them from this.

I had a suspicion, and you confirmed it. You don't know why destroying books is bad. You've never thought about it. It's an involuntary, knee-jerk reaction. Rather than do an honest examination of your beliefs, you downvote my comment and move on, telling yourself that I'm just an idiot so you don't have to think about it.

I'd destroy a Koran, too, that I bought and paid for, and you can't give me a logical argument why that's wrong. You'll just act shocked and appalled and outraged and downvote me, calling me a bigot and a Nazi for committing a harmless act.

I know the person who downvoted me isn't necessarily you (and you'd deny it anyway) but someone downvoted me without answering my question and that suffices to prove my point.
