Fla. Church Organizing Sept. 11 Burning of Quran
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) _ A Florida church known for its statements against Islam is planning a Quran-burning ceremony on Sept. 11.
The Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville is using its website and social-networking sites to promote the event. Organizers plan to burn the Islamic holy text on church grounds.
In response, the Council on American-Islamic Relations is asking Muslims that day to invite friends and acquaintances to share Ramadan fast-breaking meals and distribute copies of the Quran.
The church, which also campaigns against homosexuality, made headlines last year after distributing T-shirts that say ``Islam is of the Devil.''
