Welcome

We like to discuss everything. Everything includes current events, law, politics, economics, sports, religion and philosophy. There are plenty of websites and blogs all over the internet where these issues are discussed; however, we are attempting to create one where opposing arguments are displayed together and the point of view is not already predetermined. On this blog we will make an attempt to allow the reader to form his/her own opinion. Comments and discussion are encouraged as we believe that friendly debate is the best way to learn. The goal of such conversations, therefore, should be to educate oneself rather than to prove others wrong. So enjoy the posts and let's discuss, not argue.

Time for DNA (at least me) to weigh in on the Mosque at Ground Zero Issue. It really is an interesting issue. Recently, I've come to think the wholesale dismissal of arguments to move the Islamic center (which I was guilty of until about a week ago) isn't entirely warranted. I agree that no government should interfere with the building of a mosque (or any other form of harmless religious expression) no matter what. If I had to rank the amendments to the Constitution, the First would be first (followed closely by the Fourteenth). But I do disagree with the assertion that "there is NO good argument" against the builders of the mosque themselves moving it to a different site than the former-Burlington Coat Factory two blocks north of the WTC. A few good arguments discussion points below....
