"Hallowed Ground"


Blogger Daryl Lang took some pictures of other things located the same distance to Ground Zero as the "Ground Zero Mosque" would be.  He writes:
Look at the photos. This neighborhood is not hallowed. The people who live and work here are not obsessed with 9/11. The blocks around Ground Zero are like every other hard-working neighborhood in New York, where Muslims are just another thread of the city fabric.
At this point the only argument against this project is fear, specifically fear of Muslims, and that’s a bigoted, cowardly and completely indefensible position.

It has been an interesting controversy. I wondered when we were going to hear from you about it.

Also interesting to think about how this would play in some other countries given the recent murder of aid workers.

Sometimes the whole world gives me a headache.
