How much of the cultural center will be a mosque?

A source familiar with the project told CNN's Allan Chernoff the structure is being planned as an 11-story building. It will cover 120,000 square feet. Within that space, the source said, 10,000 square feet -- just more than 8 percent -- would be designated for the Muslim prayer space. The developer is considering the possibility of an interfaith education/meditation/prayer space as well, the source said.

ahh, the un-named source who is "familiar" with the project, glad LG cleared that up for us.

As with the contributor that is the second largest shareholder in Fox News' parent company...

The 8% is dedicated prayer space - that's like saying the only part of a church that's a church is the square footage containing pews.

Agree with bham, you can support this or not support it, but the reserved prayer space will not and should not change any minds.

I don't think anyone is going to change how they stand on this thing based on the floor plan...

What's the other 92% going to be, the Osama bin Laden gift shop???

We don't need any more of their stupid 'culture' and they don't need another place to gather, they already have over 100 mosques and countless store fronts in Ny City.

BTW, CNN is sorry, here they are trying to tell us that hezbollah is tolerant.

CNN would try to sell cat sh*t and call it cheez whiz if they were in the grocery business.

It is nothing short of a miracle that those who oppose everything Christian in this country, from crosses beside the road to ten commandments at the courthouse all of a sudden get religion when it comes to a victory mosque at ground zero to signal to the world that islam has conquered New York.

We have Daisy Khan on the Ground Zero Memorial committee and a Chruch that was destroyed during the 9/11 islamo/fascist attack having to wait ten years without permission to rebuild and when and/or if it does, it cannot build taller than the GZ memorial!!!

Wonder if the GZ memorial will be like the flight 93 memorial which is a tribute to islam and points the way to mecca???

We don't hear a peep out of these new religionist promoters of the rights of islamic jihad in America when it comes to the 200 churches and monestaries, some 700 years old, destroyed in Kosovo and Christian cemetaries desecrated.

Small miracles for small minds I suppose.

I don't think the mosque is about the muslim cause.

REALLY????


The ground zero mosque is EVERYTHING to do with the muslim cause!!!!

Perhaps you should elaborate on what you think the muslim cause just is!!!

Do you have any comment on the 800,000,000 people put to the sword and many more slaves taken in the name of islamic jihad in the last 1,400 years?

Do you have any comment on the 10,000,000 Christians (not counting hindus and jews) slain in the twentieth century in the name of islamic jihad duiring the twentieth century alone???

Again, what do you consider the 'muslim cause?

I think the muslim cause is a bunch of people of a particular religious persuasion that want to practice said religion. If that religion doesn't mess with me (which for the vast majority of muslims it doesn't) then I say go for it.

There are extremists who wish to transform the world to their ways of course but that is a small but potent portion.

I differentiate that from the mosque issue which I see as one of sensitivity to the 9/11 folks. I don't know the intent of the Imam and think it is irrelevant to the sensitivity issue.

In short, I support the Muslim cause in the same way I support the Christian cause, the Jewish cause, the Hindu cause, the Buddhist cause, etc.

That is about as stupid as a box of rocks.

Everyone who does the five muslim prayers of the day, insults all Christians, Jews and Hindus in a most offensive way!!!!

I think your tolerance is born of ignorance!

Clearly you are a secret Muslim, infiltrating the VN message boards looking to attack our fine country.

Keep your day job, you're not going to make it as a stand up comic.

Ten years down the road you are going to realize just how stupid your post is.
