    Can you please provide any link that shows these UK courts have those powers?
    After all a statement like that requires proof.
    Not yet. Give me one year, please.
    In other words, you lied.

    So that is the liberty and freedom you claim to stand for is it?

    Given the US constitution guarantees freedom of religion, you are advocating suspension or abandonment of that document.

    Who is the greater threat to the American way of life?

    By your perverse definition, most every international airport in the world is a Mosque too.

    Incidentally, the Community centre has already been approved.

    And yes Fred, you have correctly seen that some of our nutters are essentially the same as yours. The funny thing is they don't see it at all- the religious zealots and bigots on opposing sides have a lot more in common than they know. Perhaps they should mate.

    I suppose these articles in support of the community centre are in response to the drummed up opposition to it, fair enough.

    Christian-
    Supporting Article in Sojourners
    Jewish-
    Op-Ed in Support of Cordoba House in Washington Post
    local rag-
    Downtown Express:
    Interfaith-
    Inter-Religious Dialogue - “Cordoba House: A Symbol of Progress in Lower Manhattan,” By Zeeshan Suhail, et al.

    In an idle moment, I googled community centres in Manhattan, there are loads. Including a Persian community centre. Helluva city- I've got fond memories of the place. Don't let these out of towners ruin it.

    Interesting rant, but I'm telling you I saw a man interviewed in the room in the US where they operate drones in Iraq or Afghanistan describe the calculations that go into making a strike. Believe what you want.

    The islamification of society must be resisted at all costs, Islam is at war with civilization and people need to wake up to that fact.

    Whether or not it is a fact has yet to be documented. There are people and groups that use Islam to rally people to fight their cause. But I don't see how you can say Islam itself is at war with America, let alone civilization.

    If that's what you believe, do you think throwing out basic American rights as freedom of religeon and will stop it, or make it worse?

    Indeed , looks like their motto is :

    Listen to my words, but don't look at my deeds.

    This is not a freedom of religion issue. It is a survival issue. If this makes me a bigot then I can live with that.

    The USA was built on Christian values. As I said before, islam is not only a religion, it is a force meant to take over government, justice, culture...If they hate Western vaules so much, why do they immigrate there?

    And? What are the calculations? Got a linkie? I know from the forces' forum that soldiers are not allowed to take out an enemy post because there "may be" civilians there. Back up forces cannot provide cover for these forces to exit because they might hit a civilian. Fek that crap.

    But you're OK with fundamentalist Christians influencing the gov't? There's a hell of a lot more of that going on in America. I don't see you complaining about it much.
    I believe the church (or mosque) should be separate from the state.

    ^ It is. As guaranteed by the same Constitution and Bill of Rights they like to quote so often.

    I believe that, too -- separate. Gimme some proof of the fundamental church controlling the govt today. Pfft. You just want to spout libbie non-logic. Give away all of our rights, our views, our way of life for the anti-westerners who immigrate for the freebies and rights they get.

    ^ Doubt there ever will be. The PEOPLE want a person who has the same VALUES as they do. You do know what VALUES are? I think more folks are angry they were duped by obama who appears to be more muslim than Christian. Twenty years with Rev Wright hasn't helped either.

    The Christian Right are some of the biggest hypocrites on the planet and are far from having any VALUES.

    ^ typical arrogant , obnoxious islamophobe.

    this type of personality suggest to me that he would be suicide bomber material , or fire breathing islamic preacher at the least, if he were born and raised in Saudi Arabia.

    these American types and Islamic fundamentalists are two sides to the same, intolerant coin.

    You got Pat Condell pegged completely wrong Mate, formerly a staunch liberal left wing, he is an ateist and despises all religions equally, he is for free speech also the cristian fundementalists or islamic fanatics, as long as he is given the same rights.

    Check out this link with a few more vid. from Condell on religion as such.

    Thanks for that, yes I took him for a right wing Christian of sorts.
    I like his ideas although I don't agree with his approach...

    The plane did not crash into it. Pieces of the plane fell into it. Pearl Harbor is a memorial, the other parts of Honolulu where planes crashed, bombs and bullets hit are not.

    Using Gettsburg is an insult to the memory of those who died there. Over 50,000 men died in that battle.

    But they were soldiers who died at Gettysburg. The people killed on 9/11 were civilians. Three of my family fought at Gettysburg and I say it's OK to use the parallel for 9/11. I'm still waiting for reparation from the blacks my fam saved.
