I couldn't think any less of you without a dircet action that specifically harmed someone.

How do you figure that millions of people will suffer unneeded anguish from seeing a Mosque close to Ground Zero?

I think he is imagining massive pilgrimage to the site by PTSD sufferers who have phobic reactions to symbols of Islam. 

He can't be talking about residents in the area, as they already must be suffering from the mosque already there!  So it's the same angush either way

On a related note, Kasz, I just thought of the fact that it's not like this building is probably going to have a giant red sign painted on it saying "OMG MUSLIM BUILDING".  What makes you so sure this will be instantly identifiable to them, thus triggering the anguish, once the dust settles and the media move on?

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
