Mosque approved at Ground Zero

[Ernst]

Do they have a right to do it? Yes. But it is in extremely poor taste and I would hope they would recognize that.

[Flagg]

Mosques do not equate to jihad, though having had time to think about it, it's probably a little inappropriate to build so close to Ground Zero.

But to be honest, a lot of conspiracists still maintain that it the manufactured by the Bush Administration, so a church would equally be as offensive.

I personally don't care for Churchs or Mosques. I'd prefer a McDonalds instead.

Not all muslims are terrorists, and any assumption they are is ignorant.

Furthermore, i should inform you that the Religous right in the Southern states of America (i.e. Bush and friends) are far more scary then the religous nuts in Afghanistan..

We (Christians/Jews/Muslims) need to move forward and tackle the extremists together.. whether they be Jihadist, Zionists or Witch Hunting Christians...

I hope you don't believe that. I agree that not all muslims are terrorists, and they have been largely stereotyped, but the extremists in the middle east are on a different level than the most extreme racist redneck hick in the south. When was the last time a redneck blew himself up in a market for his god?

blow up yourself in a market = kill 20 people

blow up an entire city with Tomahawk missles = kill thousands..

Bush got elected because the South voted according to thier religous ethics and not what was best for America, therefore they are scarier..

Also, i do believe it was not too long ago that (KKK)were running around the south burning black people alive in the name of "Christ"...

I find several things blatantly wrong with some of your information. First of all, unless it's come into light recently, I don't know of any documents that stated Hitler was a Christian. In fact, here is a quote from Hitler himself.

"National Socialism and religion cannot exist together.... The heaviest blow that ever struck humanity was the coming of Christianity. Bolshevism is Christianity's illegitimate child. Both are inventions of the Jew. The deliberate lie in the matter of religion was introduced into the world by Christianity.... Let it not be said that Christianity brought man the life of the soul, for that evolution was in the natural order of things."

Also, as far as extreme southern right wingers go (aka hicks, hillbillies)... I was never aware of them having access to Tomahawk missiles, let alone the brains to actually fire them. Again, I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure this would have made headline news.

And lastly, on the issue this thread was intended for. Sure they can legally build a Mosque there... Sure Muslims were also in the Towers when they fell... But is it right? When the American people hear WTC they think terrorists. When they think terrorists they think Muslims. When they hear a Mosque is being built near ground zero what do they/we think? I think the opinion of the American people should ultimately decide upon the construction of said Mosque. legal or not it's immorally wrong.

P.S. I was never aware Hitler was Polish

Sorry, re hitler his mom was Catholic, his dad Christian. The swastika was a cross.. he had many religous (cult like) beliefs and had the Nazi party pursue them.

Not the hillbillies shooting the missles themselves, but voting in idiot like Bush and generally stearing America in the wrong direction.

Never said he was Polish, he was Austrian.


I agree all/most terrorists are Muslim, but not all muslims are terrorists.

Maybe we should put a Mosque on the top of the new tower, then they won't blow it up.. oh wait, yeah they will because the terrorists don't give a shit about religion and only use it as an excuse to kill!!

Then you don't understand the culture.. for them it is a sign that the USA is weak, and that Allah wills them to continue their behavior..

just another point of view..
