If it is mandatory, then there is no freedom of choice, no liberty period !

Mosques are used as terrorist meeting, training and planning centers - just like on 9-11. Islam is a political movement and based on conquest. There is no reason for the city council to invite that type of trouble into their town.

When members of any religion stand silent, teach, support, or perpetrate atrocities on non-members, then -- I agree -- no town needs that. No country needs that. When what we have come to know as traditional churches in this country begin to advocate lopping off heads of non-believers and burying children alive, then they, too, must be banned. Evil begets evil. To stand by and do nothing, say nothing, is to be a part of it.

Let's see more Muslims stand up against the barbarism of those so-called "few" who have hijacked their religion.

The First Amendment was really designed to protect the Christian Church from the government declaring one Christian sect as the only recognized church (as Virginia had done, and also as the Church of England had been).

So the separation of state and church suddenly evaporated ? Lol !!

So the First Amendment is a religious Amendment ?

Two things strike me about this thread:

Number one, it's the first news topic I've ever seen where the comments on City-Data are overwhelmingly more racist and intolerant than the corresponding comments on Reddit. I didn't even know that was possible.

And number two, apparently a lot of City-Data's members have parents who are also cousins.

I am willing to bet you don't even know a Muslim. Remember the big deal about a mosque next to the World Trade Center, most didn't even know it had already been there when they began protesting, well it's still there. So by your logic we should punish all Muslims by prohibiting a place of worship because of the actions of a few, sounds fair.
