Manhattan Strip Clubs: The Mosque Is Already There
It is my understanding that a mosque currently exists and has been at its location, four blocks from ground zero, before there was a World Trade Center, which now is trying to build an Islamic center for the mosque, not a new mosque.
I have been to a few Islamic centers that were similar to fellowship halls that usually are next to or near churches. The new Islamic center will house a gym and a large kitchen where they hope to give culinary training to people from the neighborhood. I do not know how many of you have been to this part of New York, but in proximity to the proposed location and even closer to ground zero, as I recall, there is an Irish pub, a McDonalds, a Burger King, the New York Dolls Gentlemens Club, the Pussycat Lounge and many sidewalk street vendors.
