    Oppostition for it is fine but support isn't?

    If it was a Church or Synagogue would you still oppose it?

    Who's "they"? The five dancing "Israelis" watching it go down from their van?

    No no,... I asked first :mrgreen:

    What reason would Christians or Jews fly planes into the WTC, Pentagon, and potentially the U.S. capitol?

    Why would Rauf and Co. select the former Burlington building... you do know it was shut down due to damages sustained during the attack, and that it was chosen right? Why would Rauf decide to go ahead with his plans when his "fellow Americans" overwhelmingly oppose? Why would Rauf ignore opposition from other Muslims?

    These people have no concern for the sensitivity of others. If they truly wanted to promote good will between people, they would not be ramming ahead with this. It has done nothing but foster ill will, which I believe is what this imam and his supporters really want.

    They know Christians and other groups are not going to behave like Muslims would. That's why they do these things.

    I agree. Rauf is no moderate, and his supporters are clueless.

    Rauf should allow a BBQ pork joint for homosexuals to be included within the mega mousqe... you know... as a celebration of tolerance and such.

    This is what I'm talking about with Muslims. Here we have a "moderate" who thinks the US Government is behind 9/11, and he "supports Hamas 100%", even though they are a terrorist group.

    I'm not reassured when the media tells us that most Muslims are moderate, are you?

    These people, and yes I do mean "these people" to identify the disgusting mysogynists who provoke hostility by their complete insensitivity and what seems an oblivious attitude concerning compromise -

    are not spitting, they're (*)(*)(*)(*)ting in the faces of the families of the dead.
    they are (*)(*)(*)(*)ting on America.

    They are provacatively showing their contempt for the women and men who act like women of our country.

    Is something right?
    Is something fair?

    To determine this turn it around and see how the parties involved react.
    What would happen if we attempted to place a Christian Church anywhere near Mecca? For that matter a Buddhist Temple? A Hindu Temple?

    These modern savages who practice a "religion of peace" would riot until they completely destroyed any vestige of the infidel presence.
    Look what they did to the Bamiyan statues in Afghanistan.

    So am I mad because the world is not fair?
    No, I'm mad because we bend over backwards in the name of equity to trash that do nothing but spit on us, our values and our way of life in return.

    We are the idiots for allowing them to enjoy the freedoms of this country that they are actively trying to destroy.

    There is no room in America for imported culture that favors that culture over being American first.

    I'd love to see a revolution within Islam as there has been within Christianity here in the West... I'd love to see Muslims telling their elders to go (*)(*)(*)(*) themselves... that they'd rather be free infidels as opposed to fearful, deluded zombies.

    Fine. I think both supporting it and opposing it is stupid.

    Supporting it is obviously causing issues. Does it need to be built where it is? No. Does it not need to built there? No.

    As for opposing it, 2 blocks shoudn't be that big of an issue to begin with in my opinion.

    Now will you answer my question?

    Rauf seems to think he can build it there. That's why.

    I don't support or oppose the Islamic Centre. It's causing unecessary drama while at the same time the only reason it's such a big deal is because it's a Mosque. That can be offensive to more sensative people.

    An off the tracks you go.... Sigh...

    And the only reason you oppose it is because it's a Mosque.... If it was a Church or Synagogue then it'd be no big deal. That is also wrong, is it not?

    Rauf is dead wrong in his actions, period. Sure he can build it there, but it's wrong.



    Hey, if they want to build an epic mega mosque two blocks away from the former WTC on a site where a building was damaged during the attacks, then why not ramp up the absurdity?

    ????????

    I'm not a moderate Muslim. I'm a Muslim.

    You think I'm the only human being on Earth who thinks 9/11 was an inside job? Lol....

    You're clueless and racist. Great combination.

    Yeah, Rauf is wrong for trying to build a Mosque there. And at the same time, you are wrong for opposing it.

    Epic Mega Mosque? It's an Islamic Centre. Lol

    I typically refer to it as Park 51, but there really is no difference at the end of the day. A church is more than a church, likewise for a mosque.

    There is nothing wrong with it. It's just a building construction which creates jobs and circulates money. No big deal.

    Ah, but they have no reason to.

    For the sake of making a good comparison, say a group of Jews or Christians flew planes into financial, and DOD headquarters of anywhere in the M.E., or a majority Muslim nation... then decided to build a monumental "cultural center" so close to the site of attack, that the building once occupying the site was damaged.... How do you think that would go over? Not very well is my guess. I'd fully understand their opposition in this scenario.

    I too fully understand their opposition, but I wouldn't have a problem if Christians or Jews wanted to build a cultural center so close to the attack. Everyone has their own preferences I guess....

    Even with Lebanon being more religiously diverse than typical, how can you be sure of your, let alone your nations reaction to such divisiveness?

    Well, neither Christianity nor Judaism condones flying airplanes into buildings, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of innocent civilians...so I see no reason as to why I should blame the religions....

    Now, if people wanted to erect an alter of some sort that praises the perpetrators, then that I think is wrong....
