re: #80 Cato the Elder

The freedom to practice your religion does not extend you the “right” to build whatever you damn well please wherever you damn well like, funded with Wahhabi money and sticking a thumb in the eye of the indigenous population.

This is a nontroversy. No one said anything about “you can’t build a mosque”. No one is losing the right to pray towards Mecca.

Again, let the Saudis allow one single church - even without a spire - or a synagogue to be built in Riyadh, and I’ll thing about starting to cry big splashtears for the poor oppressed Mohametans in Switzlerland.

So on land I own I can’t build a holy proboscis because you disagree with my religion?

It’s absurd and arbitrary. Unless you can connect the money back to terrorist organizations what right does any government have to tell me what I can and cannot build on private property that does not conflict with any local building codes that are probably bullshit anyway.

I thought most people here were conservatives.
