The Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, N.C. will celebrate Halloween by burning bibles that aren’t the King James version, as well as music and books and anything else Pastor Marc Grizzard says is a satanic influence, including works by the Pope, Mother Teresa, Billy Graham and Rick Warren. The pastor cites instances of scripture that supports book burning. It also likely talks about burying your head in the sand as well.

“I believe the King James version is God’s preserved, inspired, inerrant and infallible word of God,” Pastor Marc Grizzard told a local news station of his 14-member parish. Nevermind that this version of the bible was created because a king wanted a divorce. Nothing divine or holy about that.

All of this book burning won’t go to waste though, as they are planning to hold a barbeque during the book burning. Isn’t that something, they’ll be leaving with full stomachs and empty heads.
