7 Questions: Why a Mega Mosque in Murfreesboro, TN?
By Rick Pearcey • August 23, 2010, 10:27 AM
Eileen Toplansky over at American Thinker raises 7 questions about plans to build a multimillion-dollar mega mosque in Murfreesboro, Tenn. Here is news video on the mosque.
Among the questions Toplansky raises:
- "How is this mega mosque being funded?"
- "Why is a mega mosque being built when about only 250 Muslim families live in this southern town?"
- "Will the Muslim Brotherhood who espouses the waging of jihad against non-Muslim infidels be an active force behind this and other planned mosques?"
Let me suggest two additional questions:
- Do Americans realize that while all people are created equal, not all religions are created equal? Unless you would be led around like a fool, it is crucial that free-thinking people created in the image of God carefully choose their worldview on the basis of knowable truth as opposed to mere feelings, tradition, peer pressure, and so on.
- Has secular liberalism so infected the American ethos that this country, which is founded upon real-world content and verifiable information from a knowable and rational Creator (as opposed to a mere "belief system" or "value system"), that our freedoms rooted in unalienable rights and blessings from the true Creator now hang in the balance?
