popa_bar_abba – You have no idea of what amount of knowledge I have in any field at all or what I am trained in.
I do not believe that ones heart should get in the way of legal rights and freedoms.. I hear the side that we should not let the mosque be built, but we can not let that get in the way of giving every person in this country the same legal freedom that is given to anther.
I do not like certain types of people for what they represent and for the things they have done either. However, as a person who does understand religious freedom,in this country we have to be equal.In another country I would possibly have a different view.
(depending on the legal system)
Conclusion:
From our hearts and even possibly from an ethical standpoint we should fight the building of the mosque.
But because of the situation we are in and the country we live in, I am of the opinion that we should leave it all alone and not bother with a fight.
You may ask me, “How can I let my legal side get in the way of my ethical side?’
The answer is, “We must respect the law of the country we reside in.” (Dina D’Malchusa Dina) which on of them is
“Freedom of religion”
