i dont see an issue with anyone building a place a worship wherever they want, as long as they are built in accordance with the zoning and planning regulations - it's fair game.

If you had a family member who was killed by an extreme Muslim, would you want to drive by a mosque every day on the way to work? I wouldn't want that, even though I know the true peaceful nature of Islam. Call me a hypocrite, but that's how it is.

Pearl, my family was directly affected by the hezbollah-israeli war of 2006. my wife was in lebanon at the time, and she and her family went through hell with warplanes and bombings heard above, even in north lebanon. i lost contact with her for about a week because the israeli planes took out communication towers and bombed bridges. i had no idea if my wife was dead or alive.
Going by what you're saying, i should have an enraged hatred of jews. But i dont. in fact i'm a fan of many of our jewish TFPers here, and i wouldnt have it any other way. They didnt bomb my country, jewish warplanes did, and that a moral that americans need to realise when they apply this to themselves.
THAT's the difference between you and I.
