I guess Americans have forgotten the reason our society has been so vibrant and successful relies on being inclusive of cultural and religious diversity.

Super happy the town I grew up in has been in the news for this so much lately. I didn't realize it was such a hotbed of stupidity.

I stopped reading at "managed to stop having sex with their sisters long enough". Making offensive generalizations about people is what got us here in the first place.

You guys must have never been to Sand Mountain, this shit is not uncommon in Tennessee, it's just no one ever talks about it. It's just like the burning of the construction equipment and the hanging of a black employee at a construction site in Chattanooga for some new offices.

My mom is from the States but has been happily living in Canada for close to 40 years. I asked her what she though of the whole mosque near ground zero issue, and the Tea Party etc. and she said "I wipe my hands of it. America is going to get exactly what it deserves."

I don't want to generalize the whole nation, but it is sad that the majority of American's are ruining it for the minority who want better.

It seems a bunch of “real Americans” managed to stop having sex with their sisters

Just like the unwashed heathen towel heads managed to stop beating their wives and molesting 14 year old fiances long enough to build it in the first place!

Does anyone here notice a pattern? How anyone could upvote this is beyond me.

Edit: Downvotes be damned, if you can't recognize that it's rhetoric like that we see in this blog posting-- that which seeks to stigmatize and dehumanize a large group of people based on nothing but stereotyping, therefore making it easier for them to be viewed as subhuman-- then the cognitive dissonance of Reddit has reached a new low.

I don't think this article is correct, I think all religions should be banned from all countries. Problem solved.

Okay so I am very much a Christian, which lately has gotten a bad name. I say let them build a mosque. There are no code violations or anything illegal about the whole matter. However, I do find their decision to be so close to "ground zero" to be a bit distasteful. If there were some "christian" nutjobs that killed 2,000+ people in an area populated with a majority of one religious faith other than Christianity, it would not be wise to build a Christian church there. It would be insulting.
