Thank you to Ideology of Islam for this post. Philosopher Karl Popper had these wise words: "Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed and tolerance with them. ... We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant." ________________________________________
Thomas Mann said: "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." ________________________________________ The doctrines of Islam, formalized in the sacred Islamic law of Sharia, are the greatest source of religious bigotry, intolerance, hatred and violence in the world today. Anyone who supports religious freedom and tolerance should be taking a strong stand against Sharia law. Anyone who does not take a strong stand against Sharia law becomes an accessory to Islamic bigotry and intolerance.

How? How would you word such a change in a way that does not endanger all practice of religion? Where do you hold on to that sharp blade that it will not cut you as well? Remember that government documents have accused CHRISTIAN groups of being possible "domestic terrorists" on exactly the same grounds. The accusations are false, but that won't matter. You might pass such a law with the intent of hurting Muslims, but someone like Obama will use it against Christians faster than you can say "mosque". That is why freedom of religion cannot be selective. > I say we need to pay more intention to what they are doing and not > worry too much about their freedom to excerise their religious > practices. It is not THEIR freedom of religion I am worried about, but MY OWN. You cannot attack their freedom without attacking mine. That is not your intent, but it is an inevitable consequence of opposing construction of the mosque. The legal precedent set WILL be used against Christians.
