re: #31 elbruce

As a point of fact, there are already two Christian churches closer to ground zero than Park51: St Paul’s and St Peter’s, both around the northeast corner of the WTC site. There’s also a Greek Orthodox church on the southwest corner that still needs to be rebuilt. So there’s no need for this “ground zero church” business at all. There are already plenty.

Well let’s be honest, this church was established with the same idea in mind as the one to open a gay club next door. To antagonize. And though I am no fan of Christianity, I must that that this particular church doesn’t strike me as much of a church as it does an institution of bigotry - that is to say, it makes decent Christians look bad. It only helps to perpetuate the prejudice, not like the fanatic who opened the church cares, of course.
