When the door is opened to preventing the building of a place of worship on moral grounds, it will only be a short amount of time until Christian houses of worship are prohibited based on moral grounds.

The last thing in this world you people REALLY want is for the mosque to be banned from the vicinity of Ground Zero.

"Freedom of Religion" doesn't just mean, "Freedom of MY Religion."

Mr. Smith

this is a good theory, but we all know this isn't reality. In modern America Freedom of Religion has the common conotation of "Freedom from Christianity"

Good grief, many places of business won't put merry christmas in their ads, people want the ten commandments taken off everything, and throw out "in God we trust".

Why because all of those thing are symbolic of christianity.

I am indeed against them building a mosque, any one for that matter.

As for it coming back and biting us in the butt, that would be the BEST thing for Christianity. Persecution does something for the people of God that religious freedom and comfort seem to never do.
