Building a Christian Church at Ground Zero Is Not as Easy
Written By : Dave Blount

In the unlikely event that any RWN readers take seriously liberal claims that they are backing the Ground Zero Victory Mosque on First Amendment grounds, here‘s what happens when you try to rebuild a Christian church in the area:

Nine years after 911, St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church at Ground Zero remains to be rebuilt. Brother, can you spare a little fast-tracking?

So, New York big-shots can fast track a Muslim mosque near the site of the attacks on New York and the destruction of the WTC and the little Greek Orthodox church that was crushed when the South Tower fell but in all this time they can’t seem to find the wherewithal to allow this little house of worship that served not only the Greek community but welcomed anyone who felt the need to find a little peace and solitude amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

The trouble is, Greeks don’t have loyal allies in the Mayor’s Office and the White House. Consequently, bureaucrats have refused to cooperate, preventing the church from being rebuilt. Fortunately for Muslims, they don’t have that problem.

    Perhaps Gov Patterson can offer to give St. Nicholas some public land to re-build on away from Ground Zero.

    But by doing that for a Christian Church, he would be violating the “separation of church and state”. Good thing that doesn't apply to Muslims, right Liberals!

      Took the words right out of my mouth Stan.

      When you know that Muslims might kill you and/or your family, you certainly don't want to “offend” them.

      Regarding the picture, how about a photoshopped view of a mushroom cloud over Mecca or Medina?

      C'mon Stan .. you know as well as anybody (well anyone willing to admit it) that in Muslim countries the Church IS the State

      • StanW

        That is true, Sir Knight. But all of our Liberal brethern tell us that this will NEVER EVER happen here.

    Perhaps if the Greek Orthodox would get their poop in a group, blow up some people/buildings, and threaten to do it a lot more if they don't get their way, then their church would get on that fast-track too. They're just going about the whole project all wrong. They're sticking with that pacifist Christ-like outlook on the problem when what they need is the strong, militaristic Mohammadan mindset.

    Yeah, that's the ticket.

    Honestly I think the primary reason that this is being stalled is because people who build churches won't bribe. They won't grease the palm of the right people to get permits and okays, they won't send cash under the table to politicians and committeemen.

    The Victory Mosque guys are perfectly fine with doing it; that's just how you get things done in the Middle East.

    That fits right with the liberal mantra “Christianity bad, Islam good.”.

    That morning, 9-11-01, I saw this, with that second plane flying. I kept waiting for it to fly behind and past the WTC…..when it didn't, but flew INTO the WTC, I immediately knew we were under attack. SAD, SAD, SAD
