so we've got the raving anti-islamic thing going: maybe a bit of a delayed reaction. i would build a mosque at ground zero. but it would be silly to deny that islam's history is infested continuously with fanaticism, violence, war, and extreme irrationality. they're almost as bad as papists. well just as bad or badder, really. i'll defend your right to worship how you please. only: how can you possibly believe that crap? and, how come your people are blowing themselves up in order to blow random other people up, all over the world, every single day? the evil of that is matched only by its overwhelming stupidity. really, i guess we're all just going to sit and say that islam is a religion of peace, etc. that's a bit hard to maintain in the face of reality.
