Mosque Controversy

 


There’s no question that the controversy going around about building a mosque at ground zero is big. There are so many feelings about it…but most of the people I know are NOT for it, including me. I think it is absolutely idiotic of President Obama to be for it. During a visit to the Gulf Coast, Obama said that while he believes Muslims have the right to build the mosque and community center so close to ground zero where terrorists killed 3,000 people, he is not sure it's a good idea. He is not sure this is a good idea?! Come on! That in itself is ridiculous! In the first place, I don't think that ANYONE should have even entertained the idea of it, because that in itself is just flat out disrespectful to those who died on 9/11. 

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg asked: “Should government attempt to deny private citizens the right to build a house of worship on private property based on their particular religion? That may happen in other countries, but we should never allow it to happen here.”  

I wholeheartedly disagree! Our founding fathers came to America for their religious freedom, TO PRACTICE FREELY CHRSITIANITY. NOT Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and all the other different religions! If America went over to Iran and asked them if we could build a Christian church, they would without a doubt kill us! Also, in the Koran, the book Muslims follow meticulously, it says that Muslims will ETERNALLY be at war with Judaism…which is pretty much Christianity. So despite what Muslims say about wanting to be friends and make peace, according to what they follow this is NEVER going to happen. They just want to take over everywhere and convert everything into Islam. If this is really all about tolerance and sensitivity, shouldn't mosque organizers allow the sensitivity they demand of others and accept an alternate location?
