I think if CNN found a group that would be highly offended by it, then without a doubt. Especially, if Pat Robertson were involved.

With a synagogue, I'm not sure... but I'm sure there'd be some group out the CNN would pick up on and use.

If this were either being built, there be cries of racism, how religiously intolerant not to put something there that ALL faiths could enjoy.

I believe that wholeheartedly. I believe that people on the left have been so manipulated and brainwashed by the press, the media and our own government they believe that everything America once stood for and the principles of this country that made us great are wrong, racist, intolerant, prejudicial and so on.... that when the reverse prejudices are used it is more than ok. Which makes me sick because intolerance no matter what you want to call it, is still very much intolerance and wrong.

A group of black panthers standing inside 50' of a polling place using racial epithets and banging batons is every bit as wrong as the kkk, jewish anti defamation league or anyone else doing it... but the Left make excuses for it being ok and how ignorant people are because "that is not what really happened".... lol but it is.

This whole race/religion/whatever the prejudice is being such a fucking issue keeps the country divided and from truly working on the real solutions to get us up again. Let's see this energy go towards figuring out how to bring businesses and manufacturing back so we have a tax base and employment again, lets see this energy used to stop defending the ultra rich while they ship jobs overseas.... let's see all prejudice end and let's move on.... but that ain't going to happen. As long as we can have one side playing prejudices against another for votes and to get agendas passed it'll never happen.

So YES, I believe it whole heartedly and in every fiber of my body... that if it were a jewish or christian house of worship... the press would be all over it and telling us how wrong it is. And that is just sad.
