Among the responses to the planned burning of the Quran on Saturday by a church on Florida, the Massachusetts Bible Society has the best idea I've seen. Rather than just protesting, they will give away two copies of the Quran for every one burned, distributing them to prisons, hospitals, shelters, or any other place where there are Muslims without access to their sacred text.
Seems to me this follows in the steps of Jesus, showing love and respect where others are showing hatred. It's a strong witness for Christian love of neighbor.
