I agree with you brother!

In a perfect world, everyone would be allowed to do everything.

Not saying i would personally start, or be an investor in any of those businesses because most likely they would fall flat on their faces.

That is the beauty of a truly free market, everyone would be allowed to start whatever business they wanted, but the people would ultimately decide what survived and what did not.

This would cause those who start the businesses to consider what business names would be profitably and, what would not.

While your ideas would be a great novelty, they would not survive in a free market, making them a bad idea.

The mosque though, may survive because no matter where in the world you are, there will always be people looking for the next best place to worship.

Do i think that the mosque should be able to dictate what business are next to it? NO, because i view that mosque as another business.

I view religion as a business selling god. (replace God with whatever you believe, gods, lack of gods ect)

Its just another business, just a business with a slightly better chance of success than most businesses.

Very well said. Its just the irony of it all.

The word 'tolerance'.... hmm, its sounds like 'grin and bare' though doesnt it.

Is tolerance truly the best word to describe something that shoould just be......

I know, mate.

It's persecution to oppose persecutors. It's bigottery to protest against bigots, it's intolerance to deny anyone's religious rights to be intolerant.

Language can very interesting, when it's applied by extremists, who never have heard about 'general semantics' or logic.
