I'm against organized religion (for myself), but archbishop Dolan of New
York said that it was similar to a catholic proposal to build a nunnery
next to Auschwitz. That was insensitive too, and was moved quite a
distance away, if it got built at all. So Dolan proposed also to move
this
quite nice community center some disance further from GZ.


My thoughts on the subject are almost identical to Dolan's.

For the record - I think that all those who said this was a freedom of
religion issue, if all ordinances were followed, are right. I also think,
as many do, that it is a bit insensitive to stick your nose that close.

The 106th congress removed all doubt as to whether or not it is a freedom of
religion issue:

Legally the opponents of the mosque don't have a chance.

I also think that legally the opponents of the cultural center don't have
a chance. But this is a sensitivity issue, and the proponents have not
been cultivating the appropriate people properly, at least according to
what I read. They should have had dialog with groups possibly against
their plan, rather than ignoring them. Probably too late now to start
that dialog. It's a pity that muslims could not have been included in
the GZ plans better. After all, muslims died in the disaster just like
atheists, hindus and christians (note lower case).

What would your queen look like wearing a burqa? By the time you
figure out you've lost your freedom, it'll be to late.

You're quite right. I would ship all our Paki colonists out of the
country.

Yes, as the crow flies it is fairly close. However it is out of sight from
GZ, certainly at street level. Just do a google maps for 51 Park Pl, New
York, NY.

And it's more like a YMCA than a mosque.

GB is a retarded white piece of feces.

piece of **** GB not to come up with any fresh material.
