Typical Christian Response.
" Ohh they aren't Christians, they don't represent us, even though all their actions were in the name of the same God I pray to."
do personally know many Islamic people.. an yes, they are just like you and me.. except for the extreme factions of them.
So how do you know that the people coming to this mosque will be extremists? Come on now, that's a blanket statement and is false because there is NO way for you to know, based on some silly NY times article that OOZES with bias.
Even the normal Islamic people do not agree with them. I am not putting them into one boat as you are trying to make me out to do. Only you are doing that. I have said the same a lot in this thread.
But in this thread you've stated that YOU KNOW that these folks are extremists who will push their evil Agenda. Which is?
Are they moderates or are they extremists, your contradicting yourself here.

Dude, that's logic.
Terror = fear. You fear = terrorists win.

It is not rational logic. It is circular logic. A type of logic that fails under examination.
The type of fear that causes one to protect oneself is different than the kind of fear that terrorists use to destroy.
I never said that. I said the NY Post is saying that and we should be wary if the story is true.
The same people who want to build this mosque ARE the religious extremists.
Now, if the government could strictly regulate what is taught there - the good side of Islam then I would have no problem with it.. But we both know that isn't going to happen and it is well known that these extreme factions will use any means to spread their agenda.

The bottom line is that if people, especially peaceful Muslims, do not refudiate this mosque, we will all end up regretterating the candiumdrun of wherewithyouall that will eventually be the end result. I know no real Americans want to sacrificiate there freedoms or their safety just to impudane the unrightiosities.
Sorry, not as eloquent as Palin but I tried.
