    I seriously don't see what would be so bad about an Islamic gay club, anyway.

    The gay bar is only inflammatory to the extent that Muslims are homophobic, so it's only disrespectful towards people behaving in a way that deserves no respect whatsoever. I have no problem with it.

    Not really. In such a big city as New York, there are probably plenty of gay Muslims looking for partners of the same faith. That said, it's definitely a bit off-putting that the provocative aspect of the project is so clear. Doesn't really matter in the long run though.

    "Muslim beliefs" covers a lot of ground, just as "Christian beliefs" does. Just as some Christians are bigots and some are not, some Muslims are bigots and some are not.

    Pretty sure most people wouldn't automatically reject the remaining 99.9 % of the Bible/Qur'an/Book of Mormon if they woke up one morning craving cock. It's not like you're obliged to start eating pork or anything...

    "Christian belief" and "Islamic belief" and "insert religion X belief" are determined by what the practitioners of those religions agree upon believing, which varies widely within each religion, depending upon how progressive or regressive any particular sect is (including the extent to which it's members think that everything written in their holy book applies to modern society). You can't point to the Bible or the Qu'ran and say anything about Christian or Muslim belief without putting it in the context of how it's interpreted by Christians and Muslims, respectively. Which is why the idea of "Christian belief" and "Muslim belief" is complete nonsense, because there is little that all Christians or all Muslims agree on.

    pretty sure you can point to what the Bible or Qur'an say about it, as they are the foundations of the religions' beliefs.

    Except that

    a) The Bible and Qur'an are interpreted in a multitude of different ways, so there's no one definitive thing that the two books say

    b) Different sects pull different aspects of the different books. Very few sects take everything verbatim.

    To the extent that there are things that all Muslims or all Christians believe (or that all the major sects officially believe), you can say that those things constitute Muslim belief or Christian belief. But you can say that by pointing to the empirical instances of Muslims/Christians believing those things, not by pointing to a book or set of books.

    For example, believing in evolution isn't contrary to Christian belief, but it is contrary to the belief of many fundamentalist sects. If you looked only to the Bible, though, and took it literally, then you'd have to say that it's contrary to Christian belief. This is obviously proven false by the fact that a vast array of non-insane Christians don't reject basic findings of science.

    There's a difference between doing something despite the fact that it's provocative (towards people looking to be provoked) and doing something because it's provocative.

    Though the provocative element of the gay bar doesn't bother me, as I said, because it only provokes people who are being provoked because they believe unjustifiable things.

    mosques are great places for black folks who convert to islam for no good reason to congregate and practice their religion.

    I like how the libs in this thread are getting butthurt over Greg Gutfield's trolling of intolerant conservative Muslims but defend Park51's trolling of intolerant conservative Christians.

    Then again, libs hate Christians a lot more than we hate Muslims; the former are the actual threat to our freedom and way of life.

    Haha, Obama actually weighed in on the subject and gave his full support to the project, citing the principles of religious freedom as a core tenet of American society.

    Probably one of the few things he's done so far that I actually like. :tup

    He only likes freedom of religion because it lets him be a Muslim.

    I'm genuinely surprised Obama actually had the balls to do that. He had to know he was going to get destroyed for it. Kudos to him for speaking his mind and values. I don't think I've ever seen a politician knowingly commit PR suicide like this. Maybe he expects too much from Americans.

    "Does anyone in the administration have enough intelligence or education to understand the significance of the name of the organization that is building the Mosque: “Cordoba”? Current radical Islamic thinking views Spain as just temporarily lost, poised for reconquest."

    Leave it to the moslum homosexual hiding in the white house closet to help his islamic brothers trample on the memory of 9-11. Only a treasonous scumbag would want to help islam build this mosque as a display of its dominance over a conquered America. My level of disgust with my government and fellow Americans has reached new highs. This is a blatant act of treason.



    Obama is becoming more and more open about being a Muslim to the point that it is approaching a kind of in-your-face belligerence.

    According to Obama, Christians are primitive morons who cling to their God and their guns. However Muslims are a great people who have contributed nothing but good to the world.

    It could not be more clear how Obama feels. All things Muslim and Islamic are good, all things Christian and having to do with Christianity are bad.

    He is a classic third world Marxist Muslim. This is how they are trained to think from before they can walk across the hut.

    It's not the first time he just hasn't given a fuck, see healthcare. The guy is a conviction politician.

    I'd be surprised if he gets reelected, but he will be remembered as a president which tried to change America for the better, and unfortunately probably failed to get much done because America was too fucking stupid to take its medicine.

    I am seething with rage!!!! How dare this Islamic a$$ kissing Muslim president throw morality aside? Isn't he even aware this is all about WORLD CITIZENS along with AMERICAN CITIZENS who died there? Isn't at least New York even aware this is bigger than NEW YORK? My country men and women are dying in Afghanistan even as I write this piece because of THAT DAY? My Americans cousins are dying in Afghanistan even as I write directly because of THAT DAY? The French are dying over there directly because of THAT DAY. The Germans are dying over there directly because of THAT DAY. My British allies are dying over there because of THAT DAY. The Afghans themselves are dying over there directly because of THAT DAY - what doesn't this Muslim president understand?
