O...There are many tests for your love of democracy.<br />One that comes to mind is recent here in the US when New York court decided to allow a Mosque to be built near the 9/11 twin-tower, World Trade Center ruins.<br /><br />Democratic principles demands that all religions be respected, that meant allowed to exist and build their mosque as they see fit even if it is unpopular.<br /><br />Popular sentiments are being fueled by right-wing propaganda that it is in Ground Zero, but it is not, that public coffers paying for the building when it is not.<br /><br />People with sober minds are needed to make the decision even if it means losing political favor with the public.<br /><br />In peaceful times this is a test.<br /><br />CopperAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
