Sallies, first thing, American Muslims have
equal rights with all other Americans: atheist
or believing individuals. Still it seems
to me, American Muslims have to know that a
mosque built at or near ground zero will be
perceived more like an insult than that of a
blessing. As metaphoric: it would be like
the Japanese Americans building something at
Pearl Harbor, ten years after its bombing, to
honor that Pearl Harbor was bombed.... Arvin that's what you say! My perception held correctly or incorrectly don't Muslim treat Muhammad, as God, rather than a prophet? For me it would be like treating Isaiah, the prophet, as the Heavenly Father, which would be idolatrous. |
