Ramblings of a Nihilistic Misanthrope
Could people just shut up about this whole Islamic Center at Ground Zero, please? For whats left of my sanity? This country was founded on religious freedom, in fact it is the first right in the Constitution. The people that want to build this center had nothing to do with 9/11. The only connection is the same beliefs but these people don't share the extreme beliefs as the people who caused the 9/11 attacks. So what is the problem? Call me extreme if you want but this whole debate is petty, frivolous, and pointless. And then there is Pastor Terry Jones, who has said he plans to hold a burning of Qurans on 9/11. With those simple words he has set back Christianity and Humanity at least 20 or 30 years. Correct me if I am wrong but I don't remember the Bible teaching "Love your fellow man as long as he believes the same thing you do, looks the way you do, speaks the way you do". I always thought it was "Love your fellow man" period. Who are we to judge another man? Christians are just as guilty as other religions. So let me say something personal to people like Terry Jones, as well as his cohorts. You are just as extreme as the people who were behind the attacks on 9/11. You let your religious hatred blind the fact that they are just as human as you are. If you refuse to show respect to other religions by burning their sacred text mabye I should show disrespect to yours by burning yours. Hate me if you wish. Yell and threaten me if you want. It matters little to me.
