"This country stands for the proposition that all men and women are created equal, that they have certain inalienable rights. And what that means is that if you could build a church on a site, you could build a synagogue on a site, if you could build a Hindu temple on a site, then you should be able to build a mosque on the site."

PRESIDENT OBAMA, on religious tolerance
Don't you agree with him?
I do that's why I think a mosque on ground Zero is not such a big deal.

Well, first of all - it's neither a mosque nor on ground zero. :)

Secondly, I 100% agree with him. You can't pick and choose which constitutional freedoms to support; it's all or nothing. A center that includes a school, a library, a basketball court, a center for inter-faith education, and a prayer space for Muslims sounds like the perfect use for an old Burlington Coat Factory.
