44. I would never send a religous book to someone who had not expressed interest
That is just how I am. I do not agree with how the guy handled it, as far as what he said. But I also would never blame someone for not accepting a religious text from someone. I would feel the same if someone were sending a Muslim politician copies of the Bible or Torah.

Yes the guy is an ass. Yes he should be condemned for his statements against Muslims and pushing others to condemn them also. What I take issue with is the act of giving back the book. I cannot find fault with it as I would do the same. I would not have said the things he said though. I would have simply said "thanks but no thanks"

I hope that makes my position a bit clearer.
