Thread Name: BS: Islamic cultural centre near ground zero
Subject: RE: BS: Islamic cultural centre near ground zero
I strongly support the right to worship freely wherever and whenever you want. I also strongly support the right of anyone not to participate. Christianity has more than its share of idiotic leaders but I believe that they are greatly outnumbered by those preaching a message of love and peace. I am deeply offended when the former say I will go to Hell because I don't subscribe to their dogma. Likewise I find Muslim dogma offensive when it is in conflict of human or individual rights. Religious belief is all about personal choices that one makes as an individual. Christian religious leaders need to denounce the "born again" thinking and preaching of the wingnuts. Muslim leaders need to denounce both sharia law and the concept of jihad! Perhaps then we will be able to take larger steps towards living in peace and harmony!
