pretty much. We're not Britian.
It's not really freedom of conscience if you're not free not to believe.

I didn't know my personal condemnation of Islam has driven muslims to their basements.
Man, just let gtown fight the war on terror on his own. He's powerful!
It does add to the validity that his building the mosque near ground zero is being done as an abrasive act.
thats where they plot their attacks and build their bombs.
DarrinS is.
What *is* your argument? What is that 80% of the argument we're missing here?
I agree that the cons ution doesn't force us to be tolerant.
However, discriminating based on religion (as has been argued in this case) goes straight against the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th amendment, and it's affirmation through case history up to this point in time.
Ok. So freedom of religion implies tolerance of differing religions. That work for you?
Or is being perceived as an abrasive act.
Well, that wouldn't be worship could it? Atleast if worship violates another individuals right to exist.
The difference between tolerance and freedom of worship is that you're free to express your dislike for any religion. However, acting to prevent the religious act is what gets you in trouble.
Ok, I will definitely give you that. I don't know the motivations of those who are building this Community Center, but I can see how your point of view can be taken.
However it doesn't really matter now does it.
No, that's re ed. In that case we'd throw all the militant secular atheist in jail.
Fair enough.
I was couching tolerance in terms of not beating down people who practice a differing religion.
i would think you could appreciate there being a place for all the rag heads.
easier to keep an eye on.
Ofcourse it does, the battle on islamic terrorism is not only fought physically. The american public must condemn such acts, just like they would condemn Neo Nazis if they built their center near MLK's historic church.
Ignignokt ur getting your ass kicked through so many angles just stfu and gtfo and kiss my ass brih
muslims are not nazis, g.
I will note that defending someone's right to build something in a place is not the same as defending that person's beliefs.
So we should start criminalizing thought crimes?
Last I checked, Muslims are not Nazis...
Neo Nazis are not nazis, technically. My point wasn't to say that both groups are the same.
Oh god, does condemning = legislating? I guess you haven't been following my argument.
lick my balls brih
ok. i get it. you feel like it's a punch in the face.
why does bloomberg support it?
