Two high-profile religious issues briefly appeared to nullify each other Thursday as a Florida pastor announced he would cancel a planned Quran burning on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks -- as long as a planned mosque and Islamic center was moved away from Ground Zero in New York or scrapped.
However, the imam and developer associated with the New York project denied reports that a deal was reached to move.
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf issued a statement through his publicist saying earlier reports were false, and there had been no negotiations of the sort.
