Freedom of Religion. One of the most important of our unalienable rights. The right to worship or not to worship according to the dictates of our conscience. A free society must have this freedom if it is to be truly free.
Now the mosque. Do the Muslims have a right put a mosque in the shadow of ground zero? Yes, they do. Like it or not. However, people do also have the right to object to it and try to convince the Muslims to not put it there. Just like someone would have the right to put a barbecue place right next store to it. This would be my dream - a barbecue place on one side, an evangelical, fundamentalist Baptist church on the other side. Uuuhhhmmm, that would smell like freedom me.
