He may not be, but what about the people who kill and harm at abortion clinics? What about people who kill and hate in the name of the Christian religion for any reason? Does it have to be a high-profile event with thousands killed to be considered significant?

 

You're talking about the "doctors", right?

Actually, I'm talking about the people who kill/harm/destroy property in the name of religion.

 

I understand opposing abortion. I understand abortion being murder. What I do not understand is using violence in the name of God, especially when it harms or kills people. Vengence is the Lord's.

I don't know if I should be happy or terrified, but I'm starting to get a little worried with how much we've been agreeing lately....:eek: :lol:

I was just being tongue-in-cheek more than anything, but I agree with you. I absolutely oppose abortion in every possible way, but still, I have to go back to the phrase my mother and grandparents always preached - "Love the sinner, hate the sin." Vengeance and judgment are by no means ours.

I am seriously confused as to why people would be against this. Whether I agree or not with the ground zero mosque, I can certainly see the sensitivity concerns. Being able to put a mosque or any other "place of worship" as the zone permits is part of the basis on which this country was founded.

Maybe I'm not as bad as everyone thinks...when they actually read my posts. :lol:

There are many out there that believe this religion breeds hatred and violence towards "infidels", basically anyone not of that religion. So with that perception out there (not saying its right, nor that I beleive it or not) I can see why individuals would not want a mosque built in or around their community.

Interesting little note: I had a jobsite visit in Florence late yesterday afternoon to meet with a building official, and I couldn't help but bring up the subject in passing. He started shaking his head and got very frustrated very quickly, saying, "What those idiots making those flyers don't realize is that there has been an Islamic worship center a half mile down the road from there for 3 years now."

 

I did a little internet research this morning, and lo a behold, there's a website for The Islamic Center of Northern Kentucky. It's been (inconspicuously) located on Mall Road for what I understand to be the past three years...and it would seem that they haven't so much as taken over a strip mall, much less our country. Let them build the mosque that every single piece of law, legislation and American fundamental freedom entitles them to.

 

Those flyer-peddling dimwits in Florence can go play in traffic as far as I'm concerned.

Ignorance is confusing. Theirs, not yours.

There is a mosque in NYC about 3 or 4 blocks from the WTC that has been there since 1970.

I just have a problem with people that were not born in this country trying to come here and change the way we do "business". It's like they want to bring their homeland here so "they" can be more comfortable. I have traveled internationally, and I could NEVER fathom moving to that country and trying to change their language, or set up a place of worship that demonizes the residents of that country. It is truly unbelievable what is going on in this country right now.

 

I feel that McVeigh was not a religious issue whatsoever, and that's why imo it's a bad comparison. He was dealt with swiftly and permanently. Why would the U.S. and our communities embrace a house of worship that has hatred toward Westerners (US)? If we keep allowing other cultures to come to our country, then this place, as we know it now, will cease to exist. Sad really..........

You are absolutely right. Next thing you know we'll be eating spaghetti, putting up Christmas trees, using pinatas at birthday parties, eating Chinese food drinking green beer on St. Patricks Day and all sorts of other subversive acts.

There should not be one church, mosque, synagogue, or any other place of worship built in the tri-state area until "Big Butter Jesus" is fixed.

It's been on Mall Road doing business as the Mercy Foundation. Interesting to note that on their website, the words Mercy Foundation could not be found anywhere. I wonder if their new Mosque will have signage with the name Mercy Foundation or have Arabic wording on the outside? I am just confused on how anyone could support any place of worship that harbors hatred toward the very people that allowed them to build it. Their treatment of women is deplorable as well. Looks to me like we have some here on BGP that work for the ACLU. I wonder how many of you that have no problem with this mosque would feel if you had a son, daughter, or spouse sitting at their desk in the World Trade Center when the worst attack on American soil took place? What if it was your son, daughter, or spouse who jumped to their death from 80 stories in the air? Well, guess what.................the people who will worship in this Mosque share the same belief system of the people who committed this egregious act of hatred on the American people.

You chose to take my post out of context and cut one portion of it out to use exaggeration to make your point. None of these cultures have religious views which harbor hatred toward the U.S. Clarification; I only meant other cultures who harbor the hatred that I speak of, not all.

Brother, you're telling me that all Muslim-Americans believe the terrorists were right? I don't buy it.
