I never said they were intolerant. I think they have the right to build there but I certainly understand why people are in an uproar about it. It's a bad idea and it's going to cause so many problems that the message they're trying to convey is going to be lost in the shouting. They'd be better off building elsewhere and not diluting the message they're trying to send (which, near as I can tell, is one of peace) with the controversy, but they have the right to make that mistake.

We're talking about you and others insisting we're intolerant towards Muslims because we don't support the current project. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:325454 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
