Well, deep gratitude to those who agree that religious people can support each other of any faith, and those of no faith as well.

I’m sure this news will never make it onto Fox.

I hope the other MSM’s will cover this a bit more. Sounds like a great opportunity for all people of all faiths and of no faith to make a statement about how we all can share this nation and this planet in peace and respect.

This makes my heart happy. I am going to donate to one of these groups. To support Muslim Americans and African Americans .

We often forget Muslims, Christians, and Jews all worship the same God - namely the God of Abraham. To believe differently is heresy. All three have excellent traditions regarding justice and compassion.

Zionists worship a false god. So do jihadists. So do smug Christians who think God loves no one but them.

Sadly, Wall Street, corporate America, Republicans, and neo-liberals like Obama and the Clintons, worship a different God - namely the Invisible Hand of the Marketplace.

Still sore about the pony thing, huh?

Tolerance and freedom from persecution. Foundation concepts for the United States that gain traction in the uphill fight for civil rights daily.

Oh, sure it will. They’ll wait for someone who goes to one of these churches to do something bad then run 94-point headlines about “ANTI-AMERICAN MUSLIMS SUPPORTED CHURCH OF BLACK MAN WHO DID TERRIBLE BAD THING”.

Well, let’s see what could be the response(s) of the Good Christian brothers and sisters to those attending such aggrieved churches.

Will the Muslim effort be denounced as as publicity stunt by the Good Christian brothers and sisters?

Will anti-Muslim nativists see this as a fifth column activity?

Will Good Christian brothers and sisters, meaning white folk, become embarrassed and try to out do the jihadists?

Stay tuned.

How very loving and positive of them. What a great way to invest one’s energies and beliefs. This is good.

To make a friend, be a friend.
