To this they responded "if we are thrown into the furnace the God we serve will save us. But even if he does not, we want you to know O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you set up."  Bold right? They said that to the king, in front of all his soldiers and knowing he had a furnace waiting.  Well as expected the king got even more an
