So it would indeed be a good test for any place of worship that if they want their place of worship tolerated, they should, in turn, tolerate a gay bar next door.<br /><br />That said, Glenn Beck of course delivers this idea in the most offensive manner possible. Treating homosexuality as a weapon. The names like "suspicious packages" linking Islam as a whole with terrorism (and the "turban" name was borderline racist).<br /><br />And while it is an interesting hypothetical, obviously in practice building a gay bar next to a mosque is a bad idea for all parties involved.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-14619499359283506252010-08-14T02:10:17.000-04:002010-08-14T02:10:17.000-04:00Building a gay bar next to a mosque next to the WT...Building a gay bar next to a mosque next to the WTC site just sounds like a matryoshka doll of bad ideas.

Frankly, I'm glad the cowed, nicey-nicey atheism from days of yore that keeps its mouth shut even when being kicked in the shins and shushes down anyone who dares to offend religious sensibility intentionally, is falling out of favor. Religion HARMS people, and it harms them A LOT. It's time to start getting more confrontational, and if the Gallup polls are to be believed, it's working; because after the long, dismal flatline of the 20th century, the uptick in freedom people apparently feel to proclaim their disbelief is indisputably ascendant.<br /><br />No one's deriding human weakness or the value of compassion here, and there's no baby in the bathwater of gruesome stone aged superstitions.Blakenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-64732417166097203832010-08-13T13:25:08.000-04:002010-08-13T13:25:08.000-04:00The fact that you can't tell (or feel) the dif...The fact that you can't tell (or feel) the difference is the reason I detest a certain element of the "new" atheists, who toss the baby out with the bathwater when they deride compassion, kindness, civility, worthwhile social norms and acceptance and understanding of human weaknesses along with religion.<br />Second thought, its more a trait of the young in general (where a high percentage of this trendy "new" atheism seems to originate.)<br />Thanks to providence I'm over 65, and won't have to survive in the world you self-congratulating <span>narcissists</span> create.johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-45186027750940324532010-08-13T09:18:52.000-04:002010-08-13T09:18:52.000-04:00Greatest.
