I feel like an in-depth discussion of my derps isn't meant for polite company either.

Woohoo!

Beware of these kinds of people:
[walking by a department office] "dude, i'm so drunk still from last night - I think my BAC will be higher than my GPA soon"

Not the ones that are drinking - everyone does that - but the ones that are dumb enough to say such things in front of where a professor might hear. Talk about bad impressions.  :roll:

  Lots of people feel fed up with lots of things and are "looking for a reason"; on all sides of a lot of issues.

  Personally, in this issue, I do realize that they have every right to build there as far as the facts I know. There

  is no way to stop them legally.

    That being said, why must it be right there; the only halfway 'valid' place for it to be a serious contention?

  If it causes this much ill will; what do you hope to accomplish? If peace and bringing people together is the goal; wouldn't

  building it in another location solve that? It's not like this is some Muslim holy ground, as a matter of fact; it is viewed as
 
  'holy ground' ie.; memorial ground; by non-Muslims. I should rather expect that the Muslims would understand this sort of

  significance; if not at first- certainly by now. So why the insistence on the location, knowing the contention caused?

I'm not sure if I posted this already, I'm too lazy to check but...

"The fact that they can build a mosque there says all you need to know about America. The fact that they are insisting on building it there says all you need to know about Islam."

When I read that it made me wonder where an acceptable place to build this would be?

This type of "No Mosque" mindset is spreading to other parts of the country. I know somebody who flat out refuses to even call them "Mosques" but rather calls them "Forts".  :-(

  Since the protesters' argument hangs on this "Ground Zero"; I would say that ANY other place they choose this distance or greater from ground zero should

  be enough to shut everyone up. I don't see any validity in a protest once they've conceded for appeasement and moved away from ground zero.

I guess if you're really going to be pushing the "Let's build bridges with people" angle, you probably shouldn't plop it down where it's going to be pissing everybody off.

 I don't think they care about the controversy. They just want what they want; the controversy only serves to steel both sides.





 It's interesting that this particular one is named The Cordoba House.
 No, that wouldn't have any effect on the controversy at all. |>  :w:
