-should Catholic churches be allowed to build new churches anywhere near elementary schools, considering how many pedophile priests there have been?

-if 2 blocks from the WTC site is unacceptable, how many blocks would be acceptable?  3?  4?  5?  10?  

-what area exactly defines the so called "hallowed ground' of the 911 WTC attacks?

-should we have banned German cultural institutions in the USA because of the Nazi's?

-is there any legal or Constitutional basis to oppose this building's construction at all?

Can you clarify what you mean by “Mosque opposition Crowd” so I’ll know whether or not I’m eligible to participate in the poll?

The one in New York? I haven’t been following it too closely but I think there are some around here who were saying that it isn’t a Mosque. You might want to clear that up with them before you ask the question. At any rate, I am not now, never have been, and never intend to be a citizen of New York. How they decide to zone their real estate is none of my affair, hence I don’t meet the criteria for answering your poll. Sorry for interrupting.

It's a community center not a mosque. And since this is dealing with the US constitutional right to freedom of religion it goes beyond a NYC zoning thing.

We all know you're afraid, however that has no bearing on this particular issue.

There are no Constitutional issues at stake here.

Just because you declare it to be so, eh?

You're wrong. You would know that if you didn't just dismiss stare decisis as an inconvenience to the ideology that enslaves your mind.

YOU, yourself said there was no First Amendment issue.

What other Constitutional issues do you see at play here?

There aren't any.

Seems like the challenge remains open and you do not want to take it so if I were you I would not be talking about afraid. Secondly there is a constitutional issue at hand here, there is no debate about it. Since you don't know jack squat about the constitution, don't try arguing it.

Wrong again. I said that I never said it was a First Amendment issue. I never said it was and I never said it wasn't.

You don't get to decide what I do or don't say.

If there aren't any it's not because of your declarations. I'm certain you're wrong here. The Nazi vs. Skokie case comes to mind, although there is not much to that opinion.

The only think I'm really certain about here is that you have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not interested enough to review the 30 or so Supreme Court cases on point.

Observer,

Why not answer the questions asked instead of positng up your usual unlearned bullshit?

should Catholic churches be allowed to build new churches anywhere near elementary schools, considering how many pedophile priests there have been?

-if 2 blocks from the WTC site is unacceptable, how many blocks would be acceptable?  3?  4?  5?  10? 

-what area exactly defines the so called "hallowed ground' of the 911 WTC attacks?

-should we have banned German cultural institutions in the USA because of the Nazi's?

-shouljd we allow pow wows, or any other indian relgious ceremonies anywhere in the USA since they fought tooth and nail against "americans" for over 200 years?

-is there any legal or Constitutional basis to oppose this building's construction at all?

-didn't Muslims besides those flying the planes die on what is now ground zero?

and what would it matter if no Muslims died on 911?   19 foreign hijackers we are going to disallow any Muslim from building a house of worship in a specific location?
