North Carolina church plans to burn Bibles on HalloweenA church in Canton, North Carolina is marking Halloween this year by burning what it calls satanic books. Many of the books on the list are versions of the Bible.
Pastor Marc Grizzard wants to burn any Bible that is not the King James version. Grizzard and the congregation at Amazing Grace Baptist Church consider other interpretations of the Bible to be false.
They also plan to burn the books of well known Christian writers who have occasionally used other versions of the Bible.
“We’re burning versions of God’s word such as the NIV, the NASV, the ECV, the living bible,” Grizzard said. “There’s a lot of different authors that we consider heretics such as Billy Graham, Rick Warren, the list goes on and on.“
Grizzard and his congregation believe that only the King James version of the Bible is the true word of God. Grizzard says everything else is a satanic influence.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Do you know the difference between a Baptist and a Methodist?
The Methodist will speak and not try to hide from a friend when he sees them in the Liquor store!

LOL I've gone to many Baptist churches and I just didn't like any of them. What freaked me out the most when I was younger was when the pastor would tell the congregation to hug any visitors. AAAAGGGHHH!!!!! Not a big hugger!
