[Religion] A Religion of Peace and Love

Christians protest mosque.

From the article:

"'Jesus hates Muslims,' they screamed at worshippers arriving at the Masjid An-Noor mosque to prepare for the holy week of Ramadan. One protester shoved a placard at a group of young children leaving the mosque. 'Murderers,' he shouted."

Emphasis mine.

Apropos of nothing, holy crap! Mike Warnke is touring again!

He'll even be in Texas soon, lucky you. ;)

... I kinda wanna go.

Go in full drag with the beard. Take pictures. Profess your love to Warnke and claim you've got his love child.

But... but... we have to ban Islam and stop them from building any more mosques anywhere in the USA! Otherwise we'll lose our First Amendment freedom of religion!

And we have to destroy the village in order to save it, too!

Yeaaah. I think I kind of fall into this same category. It's not so much that my own beliefs have really changed, it's just that I'm tired of apologizing for these nutjobs on behalf of my chosen faith.

Why is it a big middle finger to the people that died

For the first time ever, I wish LJ had a "like" feature in the fashion of Facebook. I'd like the hell out of your post, Kaete.

'While I think having a mosque built so close to Ground Zero is like a middle finger to the people that died'

Errrrr... why exactly do you think this?

Exactly how far away would be acceptable for you, anyway?

Why is anyone acting surprised by this? Or outraged? This is what happens when you let a bunch of religious nuts run your fucking country since its creation. Duh. Really, really duh. They're all assholes, no matter which god they pray to. Let 'em kill each other, see if I care.
