Wow, really? From an atheist background, to me I’m much more horrified by the thought of any unique hand-created book being burned than any printed thing for which there are endless copies.
Er, Torah scrolls are hand-written. The scroll form is always made by a scribe, not printed.
I think you missed what ciphergoth was reacting to—I said that I’d be more upset at a Torah scroll being destroyed than a hand-written Christian bible. This doesn’t mean that I’d have no reaction to the Christian destroying a hand-written Christian bible.
What I was imagining for the hand-written bible was one without illustrations, but that probably wouldn’t make any emotional difference for ciphergoth.
