MIAMI — A Christian minister vowed Tuesday to go ahead with plans to burn copies of the Quran to protest the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks despite warnings from the White House and the top U.S. general in Afghanistan that doing so would endanger American troops overseas.

Pastor Terry Jones of the Dove World Outreach Center said he understands the government’s concerns, but plans to go forward with the burning this Saturday, the ninth anniversary of the attacks.

“I want to know what is Christian about this?  I want to know where Jesus said to burn books,” Juanita demands.

Jones, who runs the small, evangelical Christian church with an anti-Islam philosophy, says he has received more than 100 death threats and has started wearing a .40-caliber pistol strapped to his hip.

“This guy is so narrow minded that he can see through a key hole with both eyes,” Juanita suspects.

“I’ll tell you what.  I will believe that God told this ignorant son of a motherless goat to do this when I see a rattlesnake whistling Dixie.  A preacher carrying a handgun for protection – the Good Lord is gonna flail the hail outta you, son.  One day God is gonna get fed up and send a lightening bolt that hits you so hard that you’ll wear out from bouncing.”
