Once again, Muslims have every right to put a mosque there. All muslims aren't terrorists. But Muslim terrorists did create ground zero in the name of Islam which is why there is outrage at the mosques location. Spin away... |

More girls jumping rope have been killed in Chicago this year than abortion Dr.'s nationwide. :tro: |
Since when does freedom of religion extend the right to practice said religion any location they want? So if i run out on the field at a Phillies game but carry a prayer rug they will stop the game so I can pray to mecca and won't tase me? This has little to do with freedom of religion. It has a lot to do with the location of a building. That and an attempt (quite successful I might add) to garner as much publicity as possible.

dis·in·gen·u·ous–adjective lacking in frankness, candor, or sincerity; falsely or hypocritically ingenuous; insincere Think of me as you may but there are few situations in which I do not speak frankly, without candor or with no sincerity. Actually I would probably be considered too "genuous" if anything. |

people look at this county and want to live here. we're supposed to stand for something here. people think they can come here for a better life, we're supposed to be almost a utopia. but because a fringe group of radical nutjobs did a horrific thing, no one who has a tie to the religion that group was supposedly practicing can live in peace? worship the way they wish? are you saying that a religion who has a criminal element should all be tarred with the same brush? should we tail all catholic priests, assuming they all have nefarious plans? if you say they have a right, i'm not quite sure why you're still arguing this point at all? because the majority is having a kneejerk, bigoted reaction, that makes it right? it's why you're supposed to use logic, not feelings. now, if osama bin laden wanted to build a place for his followers a couple blocks from ground zero, i can see having an issue. people not breaking the law and wanting to practice their religion peacably should be left alone. my god, we sound like hateful religions zealots on this issue-you know like the enemy...some righteous line being taken on this matter, it's embarrassing. are we not smart enough to know where a line is crossed? building a mosque is crossing a line? |

as for not agreeing with their religion-so don't convert to islam. allowing that building two blocks from the tower site won't cause conversions, it doesn't break any laws, and it won't protect anyone who happens to be islam who chooses to break a law. your discomfort with their religion doesn't mean they aren't free to practice it. our laws, our guaranteed rights are for everyone, not just those deemed popular, not just those approved with a majority. it's why free speech is allowed, not just unobjectionable free speech. |

A telling Obama interview that gets no exposure
“I was a little Jakarta street kid,” he said in a wide-ranging interview in his office (excerpts are on my blog, www.nytimes.com/ontheground). He once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his elementary school, but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics — and more likely to be aware of their nationalism — if he once studied the Koran with them. Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.” OMG ever hear it?:zz: Moreover, Mr. Obama’s own grandfather in Kenya was a Muslim. Mr. Obama never met his grandfather and says he isn’t sure if his grandfather’s two wives were simultaneous or consecutive, Nice or even if he was Sunni or Shiite. http://select.nytimes.com/2007/03/06...stof.html?_r=4 |

I dont have a problem with Muslims building Mosque's in the USA either. I also believe the ground zero Mosque is incredibly insensitive. |

NEWSWEEK: Do you and Michelle talk to your girls about having a God? Jesus? Obama: Well, we do, but we don't have a systematic course of study for the girls. We say grace at the table. They are inquiring minds, so whenever they have a question about God or faith, then I have a conversation with them … I'm a big believer in a faith that is not imposed but taps into what's already there, their curiosity or their spirit. You used to travel with your Bible. Do you still do that? Sometimes, because my briefcase gets so packed, I forget to pack it, but I often have my Bible with me. It's something that I read in the evenings and it takes me out of the immediacy of my day and gives me a point of reflection. What do you think about the Kingdom of God? Is it attainable on Earth by humans? I am a big believer in not just words, but deeds and works. I don't believe that the Kingdom of God is achievable on Earth without God's intervention, and without God's return through Jesus Christ, but I do believe in improvement Do you pray in your personal life? Yes, I do. Daily? Yeah, every day. http://www.newsweek.com/2008/07/11/i...and-works.html I'd argue that's more religious than 90% of Americans |
No one is arguing the premise of religious freedom. But simply asked, "Why there."
We're supposed to be sensitive, but where is the sensitivity in return?! NYC is a union town. NOTHING gets done without a union doing it. Doubt they'll find any union willing to work on that project. But the illustrious mayor (who got himself a 3rd term and will probably lobby for a 4th) will probably spearhead some law that will allow non-union workers to build that mosque. Then watch WWIII on the streets of NYC. NYC union workers are not to be messed with. PrezzBO would do best to stay out of it. We know what The First Amendment is all about - he doesn't need to preach or remind us of it. He has opened up a political donnybrook with every candidate in November feeling it necessary to weigh in the subject. National poll shows 65% of population not in favor of having the mosque where the Iman proposes. |
