What if the Muslim next door to you sounds the call to prayer five times daily and has prayers at his house in a residential neighborhood with residential zoning?


So we should not permit Christians the religious freedom of having Bible studies because Muslims might have Koran studies....

We should not permit Americans to have the second amendment because Muslims and Black might get guns an murder people.

This case was over a man having Bible studies in his house - a legal activity under the first amendment. After massive harassment by his witchey neighbors, he was raided by the State and told it was unsafe to have people in his living room. So he moved it outside. Then they banned him from having it outside because he built an overhang to protect his friends from the weather. They were harassing the nig-er, er, I mean Christian.

I asked how you would like it. Personally I don’t want either one next door. This goes way beyond having Bible study into something which impacts the neighbors rights.

No, this is all about residential zoning and a guy thinking he is exempt and using the religion get out of jail free card.

We have residential zoning to protect the neighborhoods and the good of all. If a house next to you wanted to put in a nudie bar under "first amendment" freedoms you would be screaming from the rooftop.

You must feel you have an indefensible position, if you felt the need to inject race into the discussion.
I had no idea, and my previous statements stiil hold.

Dear Sara,

Your logic is termed “AREO FRITTO!” in Milano, Italia!
Psst! Incase your translation skills are not fully developed, I will graciously translate that term for You!

“FRIED AIR!” or as we Americans call it! “HOT AIR!”

TRP
