Yes, "Ground Zero Mosque" opposers, to support Islam is to support terrorism. Just like supporting Christianity is supporting the Crusades, neo-Nazis, Salem witch hunts, and child molestation by priests. It's also supporting the persecution of Jews, Native Americans in North America, Native Americans in South America, Africans, other Protestants, other Catholics, and women to name a few. You ask why all terrorists are Muslims. I don't know, why are all neo-Nazis Christians? JESUS. LOVES. HOLY CRAP WHERE WAS THAT UNCLEAR. YOU CANNOT DODGE THAT "LOVE ONE'S NEIGHBOR" BIT BY REFUSING TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO MOVE IN NEXT DOOR.
Let me show you something.
That is the "mosque." You may note that it does not look like this...
...or this...
...when the brilliant minds at Fox News and the Internet Hype and Scandal-Making Machine would have you believe it looks like this:
AND THAT RIGHT THERE IS GOING TO BE BUILT ON TOP OF WHERE THEIR BROTHERS IN AFGHANISTAN CRASHED PLANES INTO THE TWIN TOWERS. IT IS A SLAP IN THE FACE, PLEASE REFUDIATE, OUR CHRISTIAN DEAD ARE FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR OWN DEAD WHO CERTAINLY AGREED WITH WHAT THOSE TERRORISTS DID.
What, Muslims died in 9/11? NOOOO, certainly not! The only people who died there were pretty, Republican, 31-year-old mothers of 3 with last names like Adams and Jackson who were on the phone with their Army husband of ten years saying the Lord's Prayer when the plane hit the building! No EMTs named Salman Hamdani, who disappeared on 9/11 and were naturally investigated as a terrorist before their remains were found next to his EMT bag, having died doing everything he could to save the people around him. No pregnant women named Baraheen Ashrafi prayed next to their husbands in the morning that Tuesday only to have them never come home and give birth to a fatherless child two days later. No women named Rahma Salie, also pregnant, died on the plane, only to have their family members be kept from flying to her memorial service because her name put her under suspicion as a terrorist. No 69-year-old retired nurses named Touri. No Ahmads, Alis, Hussains, Jamals, Khans, or Samirs. No one with those names can hope to be prayed for at the place they died.
Now that I've gotten that bit through with, you should also know that IT IS NOT EVEN A MOSQUE. YES, NOT A MOSQUE. It's a community center to promote "inter-community peace, tolerance and understanding," precisely what we were refusing to give. The plans include a swimming pool, a restaurant and culinary school, childcare services, and a September 11th memorial. Yes, there will be a mosque, run separately from the rest of the Park 51 community center and open to all visitors. Jewish community centers are not called synagogues. Christian community centers are not called churches. But this is a mosque, because that gets the biggest rise out of xenophobic America. Also, it will not be at Ground Zero. It will be some blocks away. It will not at all be visible from the site.

A friend loves at all times. Love each other as I have loved you. Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs. Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. These may sound familiar because God said them. I don't see some kind of exception there. We are all His people, correct? So try loving some. Hypocritical Christians give me heartburn.
