Gee i don't know- Nichols and McVeigh were conservative Christians
and they went and bombed hundreds of Americans including children to death. Doesn't it soil the memory of the Americans who died to have Christians stick our nose in it by having a church in the same area? What about the loved ones who lost family and who now would have to look at that Cross each time they go by?

You say that Nicols and McVeigh weren't good Christians? Well did you ever think that the Musim terrorists who blew up the World Trade Center weren't considered good muslims and that religion denounced them?

Did the Christian churches ever denounce Nicols and McVeigh ( nah they just hoped people would forget it about and continue to look at arabs).

McVeigh was acting against the government he had nothing to do with any religion. Yes, many religions condemned what he did.

More lies from the obamabaggers? McVeigh sounds more like a lib. His religion was the religion of science. A Christian church would be just fine anywhere in this country.

It is Oklahoma. The Federal building probably IS a Christian church!

I don't think McVeigh brought down that building in the name of Christianity.

Did he shout, "god is great" as the building exploded?

Your post is nonsense since:

a. The "Christians" you are referring to aren't asking to build a church near the the site they bombed

b. At 9/11's ground zero, there was a Catholic church that collapsed when the twin towers crashed to the ground , but NY denied permission to rebuilt the church, while allowing for the construction of a mosque

c. The bombing of the Federal building was a terrorist act agains the Federal Government, while the 9/11 attack was a symbolic act of terrorism against the US in general (government and civilians) and what the towers represented to the world
