Mosque at Ground Zero

Copy of an email I received.

Tolerance

I am perplexed that so many people in the USA are against a mosque being built
near Ground Zero. I think it should be the goal of every citizen to be
tolerant. The mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance.

That is why I also propose, that two gay nightclubs be opened next door
to the mosque thereby promoting tolerance within the mosque. We could call
the clubs "The Turban Cowboy" and "You Mecca Me So Hot".

Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork and have an
open barbeque with spare ribs as its daily special. Across the street a
very daring lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret" with sexy
mannequins in the window modelling the goods.

Next door to the lingerie shop, there would be room for an Adult Toy Shop
(Koranal Knowledge?), its name in flashing neon lights, and on the other
side a liquor store, maybe call it "Morehammered"?
If you agree in promoting tolerance and you think this is a good plan,

Isn't this mosque just a room set aside in a hotel/entertainments apartment anyway? Surely room for some of those suggestions could be found in the same building.

It's not a mosque.

And it's not at Ground Zero.

We ALL know that SgtP but never let the truth stand in the way of a good story

Vaguely on topic, a quote from yesterdays Daily Wail, Ephraim Hardcastle column:

"Hamed Abdel-Samad, an Egyptian-born German political scientist, has an answer to those who think Islam is taking over the world. A Muslim and son of an imam, he tells Germany’s Der Spiegel.
‘There are 1.4billion Muslims. So what? The important thing is that in almost all countries with a Muslim majority, we see the decline of civilization and a stagnation of all forms of life. Islam has no convincing answers to the challenges of the 21st century. It is in intellectual, moral and cultural decline – a doomed religion, without self-awareness and without any options to act.’

He’s saying it, not me! "



It made me laugh out loud in a kind of amazed horror! I wonder how long he's got left?
