Most ironic post, ever.

Irony? If one practices a religion that is false, yes, we must tolerate it. No problem with that. When the religion calls for the murder of those who don't agree with them, then that religion should NOT be allowed to exist where they call for the murder of others. The followers of that religion must be invited to leave the country and their places of worship (mosques) must be leveled and the land made available for other use. Where is the irony? Did I call for the murder of the muslims here?

See, what you're not getting is that free-will was ordained by God. It's the one thing that no tyrant can truly take from you. The state can at best force outward observance of a religion, but it can never dictate to the conscience.

Razing Mosques would accomplish nothing good. At best you'd create a 21st century class of maranaro. Ironically, maranaro is Spanish for swine. It refers to the Jews in inquisitional Spain who adopted the outward trappings of Catholicism in order to keep their heads on their shoulders. In secret, they hate the church that compelled observance and practiced the religion of their conscience in secret. All you would do would be to drive Islam underground. You would effectivel accomplish nothing, but you'd stomp on real American values in the process.

Maybe you've heard of a few of them? Freedom of association. Freedom of religion. Private property rights. Anything ringing a bell here? Anything at all?
