Ok moderates of other faiths, this guy is wanting to work, share prayer space and just see if life can be made better for all in NYC's faith community. Where are your voices to work with him and not to let others make your lives fit their version of hell?

One of my friends is said she didn't like it as it showed he was giving into pressure, but I say at least the right can't say he isn't at least trying to work with others outside of his faith. 

My friend pointed out that this would give the right a chance to take arms to other things, like cyberbombing an abortion clinic's website to keep women from being able to make appointments, like bringing unloaded weapons to a wedding chapel where a gay marriage is being performed and having signs along with the guns saying we know where you live and we have ammo. She says these are not direct threats, they are a part of first amendment, freedom of speech.

Two blocks away from the towers is not sacred ground, the site where the towers were, well I can see that as sacred ground, but with in one of the towers they had a Muslim prayer room. So WTF?????????
If they could be that open minded IN the towers, why can't folk be that open minded for two blocks away from the tower.

The right takes arms to everything anyway, they always do their best to run everyone else's lives and all because of a book that has been rewritten more times than I have had birthdays and not always with out translation errors. 

The actual purpose for the sacred site two blocks away from where the towers were is to be a mall; shopping for tourists, those who need to feel as if they are super patriotic by buying 9-11 memorial stuff.

Yep a real sacred site to mass consumerism, the biggest religion of all.

I don't count on saner minds working with this leader, but at least he is trying to hold out the olive branch of peace. That is truly more than I can say for his counter parts in the Christian communities.
