| 62. Agreed, as there are more Christians than Muslims in NYC |

But I don't understand your statement, "But seriously, a mosque in New York City? Oh, it really breaks my heart, it is so dangerous!"
Do you mean a mosque so close to "ground zero" is just inviting violence? If that is what you mean, I agree with you, but perhaps it is the best move. Hate vs muslims is on the rise....would you have them just "go to the back of the bus" just to get along?
