Why is everybody fighting this Community Center/Mosque so hard.

There were at least 2 mosques in the vicinity of the WTC before 9/11. This is not AT Ground Zero. It is 2 blocks away and around the corner. It has a mosque in it... but it is a community center.

You don't get mad at the other team because they are gaining on you. You research your own game and find out where you're going wrong.

The Muslim religion is growing the US.
I don't like it.
The Christian presence in America is shrinking.
I don't like it.
This is/was a Christian nation because we were mostly all Christians. That is changing.
I don't like it.

But what we need to do is come off our high horses long enough to take a good long look at why Christianity is losing it's ground. Where are we missing it?

People see something in today's Christianity that they don't like. I have a feeling that TV Evangelists & Mega churches with uber rich pastors don't help at all.

I just think people have their shoes on backwards on this "Stop the ground zero mosque" thing. Especially since it isn't on ground zero and it is a community center.

We need to get over ourselves and then reevaluate ourselves.

I think people are looking for something real ,not weird ,but spiritual , real answers to real problems.Not metrosexual hoopla ,sipping lattes talking about paradigm shifts. Christianity has to get back to the grassroots so to speak, and we need to be able to tell the truth in love . THE REAL TRUTH about Jesus and only he can save us from ourselves and HELL .
