[Re. the Islamic community center being built a few blocks from Ground Zero.]

HOW am I supposed to Feel about this (as a Christian)???
This issue has me so angry-- I don't know what to do with this anger. ...Clearly, this Ground Zero mosque is the Muslim world staking their claim on America! And no one can stop it, no one Will stop it. How can this be allowed?!?! This makes me even angrier (and I don't know that this emotion is 'righteous anger' the way it is building in me).

Is this America anymore?? ...I just returned from Disneyland with my family and I was shocked how many Muslims were there. We go every year, and I've never seen this before. Not the most Christ-like emotions-- but I Feel they cannot come here and enjoy what America has to offer while scheming to destroy us!

Truly, I do not feel I am intolerant of this religion just because it is different from mine-- but yes, I suppose I am discriminating against Islam BECAUSE this religion intends to destroy.
I do NOT want them Boasting over 9-11 with a mosque! Yet, I am resigned that we Will see that happen. Nevertheless, I don't seem able to feel anything but anger. And sadness.

Moron. Your constitution forbids state interference with religion. It's why the pilgrims went there in the first place. Which part of your own founding principles as a nation, the very bedrock of the society you are so patriotically proud of, do you not understand?

besides, the problem here is not what Muslims have or haven't done, its your feelings towards them. It's you who has the problem, and its you that has to address that problem. When you cant even look at obviouisly innocent families, with little kids, enjoying a fun park without brimming over with rage and thinking that they are all plotting to destroy the US, then you need to talk to a health proffessional about your issues.

I don't know, Sheep. What would Jesus do?

Clearly, this Ground Zero mosque is the Muslim world staking their claim on America!

You know that there have been mosques in the US since long before 9/11, right?

And no one can stop it, no one Will stop it. How can this be allowed?!?!

Because it's perfectly legal, and because the Muslims that are building it had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks.

Is this America anymore?? ...I just returned from Disneyland with my family and I was shocked how many Muslims were there.

What does a Muslim look like, Sheep?

Not the most Christ-like emotions--

That should tell you something.

but I Feel they cannot come here and enjoy what America has to offer while scheming to destroy us!

Who is threatening to destroy us? Do you have some specific evidence of wrongdoing by specific individuals?

Or are you saying that anybody who wears a turban or has brown skin is plotting to kill us all? See, that would be a funny thing to say, considering that more Muslims than Christians have died fighting radical Islam.

Truly, I do not feel I am intolerant of this religion just because it is different from mine--

Um...

but yes, I suppose I am discriminating against Islam BECAUSE this religion intends to destroy.

Well, it's awfully big of you to admit that you're that ignorant.

Erm, the people who orchestrated and performed the 9/11 massacres where not The Whole of Muslim Society. It was a bunch of fundamentalist conservative religious people, and a few rich Saudi Arabians.

You have the Old Plantation Southerners to blame for many of the Muslims in America. They brought, or bought, slaves from Africa to work their plantations so they could relax and just make money. Many of those Africans were Muslims, and many of their descendants have returned to their old religion.

How do you see on a person whether she's a Muslim or a Christian? You have to talk to her first.

Christians have destroyed just as much as Muslims have. Probably more, as there are more Christians in the world.

Forgiving? Oh wait, you mean as a FUNDIE Christian. In that case you should feel gut-bursting hatred directed toward every single member of a large and diverse group despite the fact that most of them had no involvement.

This issue has me so angry-- I don't know what to do with this anger.

Shove it up your ass.

Clearly, this Ground Zero mosque is the Muslim world staking their claim on America!

Or they're building a house of worship on a piece of real estate that isn't actually ON Ground Zero but a few blocks away.

And no one can stop it, no one Will stop it. How can this be allowed?!?!

Zoning permissions have no religious bias.

I just returned from Disneyland with my family and I was shocked how many Muslims were there.

To be fair, Aladdin WAS a Disney movie, in fact, three of them. Joking aside, all I have to say is "so what?". Do they not have a right to exist?

Not the most Christ-like emotions-- but I Feel they cannot come here and enjoy what America has to offer while scheming to destroy us!

Yes, they're totally trying to destroy us by going to overpriced amusement parks 9_9

Truly, I do not feel I am intolerant of this religion just because it is different from mine-- but yes, I suppose I am discriminating against Islam

THAT DOES NOT COMPUTE!
THAT DOES NOT COMPUTE!

I do NOT want them Boasting over 9-11 with a mosque!

But of course Christians should be allowed to push their religion over 9/11 though 9_9

Nevertheless, I don't seem able to feel anything but anger. And sadness.

That's what fundyism does to people.

old comment by Allegory for Jesus

Here's some help for you:
Christians are to Nazis as Muslims are to al-Qaeda. The first in each comparison is a LARGE GROUP OF NORMAL PEOPLE. The second in each comparison are/were our actual enemies who also happen to be a sub-group of that first group of normal people. This means that while "our enemies" may be muslim, Muslims are not "our enemy". Just as Nazis may have been Christians, but Christians weren't Nazis. Get it? Comprehend basic logic?

Hopefully you will now understand why a religious center being made is not a conspiracy by enemies to chest-thump over a victory of their own.

Also, once again: Headache, shut the fuck up.

It's something called the First Amendment in what your favorite president's daddy called "that damn piece of paper."

I just returned from Disneyland with my family and I was shocked how many Muslims were there.

Why am I reminded of this?

Your xenophobia is showing because:

1. They already live here.
2. They want to enjoy this country just like you do.
3. They are not scheming to destroy us.

I do not feel I am intolerant of this religion just because it is different from mine

You may not feel that way, but that's exactly why you're intolerant.

I do NOT want them Boasting over 9-11 with a mosque!

Because we all know that every square foot of public property is supposed to be plastered with Christian symbols and churches.

This is what you sound like:

"HOW am I supposed to Feel about this (as an American)???
This issue has me so angry-- I don't know what to do with this anger. ...Clearly, this Pearl Harbor restaurant is the Japanese staking their claim on America! And no one can stop it, no one Will stop it. How can this be allowed?!?! This makes me even angrier (and I don't know that this emotion is 'righteous anger' the way it is building in me).

Truly, I do not feel I am intolerant of this nationality just because it is different from mine-- but yes, I suppose I am discriminating against Japs BECAUSE this race intends to destroy.
I do NOT want them Boasting over Pearl Harbor with a sushi joint! Yet, I am resigned that we Will see that happen. Nevertheless, I don't seem able to feel anything but anger. And sadness."

See how stupid this whole thing is? And it's not a mosque, nor is it on Ground Zero. Stop having conniptions over it.
