Why is it okay for someone to build a Catholic church near an elementary school, yet not okay for someone to build a Mosque near Ground Zero?
And why is it that the people that are dead-set on having "freedom" and "liberty" want to force Muslims to build their Mosque somewhere else?

I don't really get this. It seems like another cable-TV talking point. Why stop them from building a mosque? Islam didn't topple the towers, and the cleric's "radical" views seem pretty misinterpreted ("shariah" may not equate with Pakistan's or Iran's implementation of it, and the quotations featured on FOXNews don't elaborate on what he means by "shariah"). If we accept this thinking, we should also push to raze all the Christian monuments and churches established by the Crusader foothold.
ReplyDeleteWell,
ReplyDeleteI think the famous atheist,Pat Condell makes a good case against the Mosque at Ground Zero. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjS0Novt3X4
Additionally, watch the episode regarding how to tell your parents you're an atheist. AKA "Was Jesus Christ a Homosexual." It sounds crude, but its really not. If you like argumentation and British wit, you will love Pat Condell.
First response after watching the Pat Condell:
ReplyDeleteWe can't allow this to be built! Or the terrorists win!
Okay, when I put my actual thinking cap on I come up with; why the hell do they want to build it so close? What would motivate them to do so? Is it really the "claiming of the land" as Mr. Condell says?
All in all, I'm not quite sure what to think now...
