Yes, that one gets overlooked a lot. Easier for a camel to pass through th eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the gates of heaven.

Of course, the "eye of a needle" did mean something different then, so not quite so lidicrous, and there is always some argument over literal interpretation vs metaphore etc, and none of this has anything to do with the (not a) mosque (two blocks and a bit from being) at ground zero anyway.
Im sure the koran burning nutter will be sucessful in stopping them building a mosque at ground zero, as it never was a mosque, and never was going to be at ground zero in the first place

I like your impassioned denial. But you're wrong. You might not be Roman catholic but if you're a Christian of a major church then you're a catholic.

You know, this whole thing is a media frenzy blown out of all proportion. The site for the new mosque, to replace a temporary one in the area, is NOT ON GROUND ZERO - it is actually two blocks away. There is a heck of a lot of buildings, (commercial, residential, political and several Starbucks), in between the Ground Zero and this new Mosque. It is also not a traditional mosque, but more of an education and study centre - something I think people need.

I saw in the Daily Show of John Stewart the map and it reflects what you said...The site is far from Ground Zero..
