  4. Olympic medal, it's one thing to win a championship in any type of league, but I dont think that compares to winning for your country against other countries best players. Pretty sure the feeling of winning a gold medal, is def better than winning the big one in whatever your sport may be.

  6. That analogy is terribly incorrect. Number one, a statue has the sole purpose of celebrating or glorifying. The religious center's primary purpose goes well beyond celebration of anything. And what makes you believe that this is an act of attention? $100M is not being spent to receive attention. Number two, there is a direct connection between Hitler and the Holocaust. If there is anyone out there that thinks there is a direct connection between a mosque or religious center and the 9/11 attacks, shame on them. I think the easiest way for me to bring my point across is this. People need to stop labeling those terrorists as Muslims. It's not only that the mindsets of the terrorists do not agree with what Muslims believe. They oppose what Islam teaches. Why, then, should anyone even be bringing the 9/11 attacks into this? I don't even want to bring religious freedom into this. Because in the end, the construction plan may end up winning simply because the opposition will reluctantly step down, accepting the 1st Amendment, while still showing hatred. Forget religious freedom for a moment and consider this: do you really that think Muslims (as in those who act according to what Islam teaches, since that needs to be specified) were and are celebrating what happened on September 11, 2001? Or were they expressing the same sorrow as those opposing this project? A fraction of followers either misinterpreted what Islam is about or tried finding a way to use Islam to justify their unacceptable actions. Is that a legitimate reason to come in the paths of those who correctly interpret the belief system?

  7. I read somewhere that the organizer of this said he would be more than willing to build the mosque somewhere else, and if there is another area he would take it. The Christians can protest all they want, but it's the Muslim's constitutional right to build this mosque wherever they please. If this were a huge Southern Baptist Church this would not be a big deal, but since the Muslim community has a couple of airheads, their entire religion is unfairly judged.
