re: #101 J.S.

If this were indeed “not a controversy”, then why the fuss? Why the uproar over minarets?

I’m sorry, but I, for one, don’t want to see any damn minarets in Basel or Zurich until I can go to see a church spire in Medina.

I’d be most pleased if the rest of Europe would get a clue.

Again, freedom of religion does not include freedom to build your skinny towers in my town, if my town doesn’t want them.
