[QUOTE=Novistador;24521624]Pure democracy is not that great, letting a mob do whatever it likes is exactly what those who defend the mosque are arguing against. Democracy is a fine way to select officials, but its power ends where individual rights begin. That's why most democracies have a constitution. A majority has no right to vote a mans life away, his property away, or his rights away. Something isn't right or just Simply because 51% of people want it.[/QUOTE] Of course, I know this. As I was concurring before, there is virtually nothing to be done against the construction now, seeing as how they are protected by rights. I never once said that everything should be decided on a vote, that's why we have leaders in the first place. I still don't agree with it being built [I]there[/I], but it's not like I'm gonna go burning down buildings or anything. I'll just leave that up to the criminally insane.

Are you saying all religion should not exist? Without the feeling to be inspired towards progression, the need from enlightenment from an otherworldly force greater than what we know, or man's constant curiosity about the meaning of life, how could we possibly have progressed this far? Religion has inspired so many people to accomplish so many things, without it then we certainly wouldn't have come this far, and if you deny that fact then I can only say that I'm very sorry for you.
[QUOTE=pudt duck;24474459]Islamification?

I turned it off after he said '..the religion that murdered them'. Maybe I should have kept watching, but I felt like I didn't need to. I'm not religious (I just don't see the point. If God is real, only one of them can be right anyway). Islam is a peacful religon, Muslims are a peaceful people. If your opinion is that all Muslims are terrorists and that they are cruel, you are ignorant and have lost. Lost and given in to terror. Terrorists want you to think Islam is based on violence and not that they have warped and twisted it to support their actions. I'll put this another way. 3 days after the 7/7 attacks in London I went on the Tube. I wasn't scared, I wasn't upset (I did feel sorry for those caught up in the explosions), but I was and still am defiant. They could kill me but I wouldn't afraid. It's the ultimate insult to those mentals that see themselves as 'crusaders of God'.
This man is a complete dipshit. I doubt he understand what he is talking about.This is about religious freedom.AL quida did it NOT Muslims. BTW Fox news owner pays for the mosque. Hope you know this.

This thread is full of sheepers. All I'm hearing is what political commentators tell me on the media (Fox - Right, MSNBC - left, CNN - middle), yet everyone on Facepunch should know better than to trust the media that are just sugar-coating their words to save their own ass and to keep the publics attention. Please, do your own research. A video can spark interest, but you need to conduct your own research. Don't listen to the interpretation of what someone said, go read or listen to what he had to say and decide for yourself. If you don't, these threads will always end up in these generic, undetailed, ideology wars.

Isn't this mosque being built by the dude that owns Fox News? Wow.. the dude in the video is the biggest troll in the world. Especially at the end. Wow. [editline]08:53PM[/editline] Also, isn't building mosques everywhere a GOOD idea? I mean terrorists would never attack us if we have mosques everywhere. I'm sure it's some sort of a sin for them to destroy mosques.

This is not the case. I just think it would be a good precaution, and not a defense.

He even says he hates it and thinks it's vile and oppressive. He's defending their RIGHTS. Something every American should do. Because if they take away one groups rights, it's only a matter of time before they go after others.
