Why So Much Hate Against Proposed Islamic Center? -Facts
Friday, October 7th, 2011Hasn’t what the President and Mayor Bloomberg said enough for people to open their eyes and realize that we are not at war with Islam? This is the 21st century we are living in, and need to understand that 1.5 billion people don’t promote terrorism.
I, as a Christian, feel for young Muslim children around the world, and especially the United States, who have to turn on their TV and see that their Mosque is not welcome, and that their Holy Book will be burned. This is not the country I thought I was living in. This sort of maltreatment will obviously be the tool used by terrorist organizations to justify to these impressionable children that what terrorists do is right, even though it’s brutally despicable. This is a sad time for America when all Muslims are painted with the same brush as the extremists of their religion.
What’s even more sad, is that major political figures support this anti-Islamic rhetoric, and are even a part of such magniloquence. They are unknowing of the damage they do to Muslims in America, who moved here to live the “American Dream” like most other people. Instead these people feel unwanted, and even despised.
I would like to know why there is so much hate in America against Muslims. I wonder if there are any people out there like me who do not look at Muslims and see evil? Please feel free to e-mail me about this issue. I would really like to get into the minds of how people think. I am probably just another liberal university student with no wisdom, but my heart and mind strongly points me towards accepting all people, no matter who they are. Am I wrong?
r r, the Islamic Center that they are building there was actually proposed and planned prior to 9/11. And besides that, why should these Muslims have to be associated with terrorists? I understand the sensitivity, but undermining our Constitution and these group of innocent people’s right to practice their religion freely only degrades this nation in the long run.
com’on larry, you seem to forget that Muslim Americans also died in that horrific incident. Also, don’t forget that there are currently many Muslim Americans who serve in our military and risk their lives for our freedoms. Are their actions in vain?
kate112280, I appreciate your well reasoned response. I go to a very diverse University (I won’t say, because I don’t think YA! allows it), and I have Muslim, Jewish, and Christian friends, and all of them are Americans. I don’t consider my Muslim friends any less American because they love this country just as much as the rest of us. They lead normal lives, and aspire to become a great positive forces in this world, like the rest of us.
Traditional Girl, the thing is that I would agree with you if terrorists were the ones erecting a mosque there. However, this is not the case. Normal Americans are the ones doing so, but are unfortunately met with disgust. If we move their project, it will not be a victory for Christians or Muslims. It will be a victory for terrorists.
