“And what the other individual posted from Wikipedia is also true, the sacrifice is in commemoration of the willingness of Prophet Abraham to sacrifice his son, Ishmael,”

The “Other Abrahamic Religions” that you mention do not recognize the “willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son, Ishmael” The Other Abrahamic religions , which I will NAME as Judaism and Christianity, recognize Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son, ISAAC.

The Mosque in our neighborhood was built without permission of the neighbors, bought by a straw corporation with false plans, and then proceeded to plaster the neighborhood busses and bus shelters with posters saying that JESUS and MOSES were Moslems , which was insulting to a majority of the area residents. So yes, this PARTICULAR Mosque has caused me and many others a great deal of discomfort.

I will quote your own sura to you: (a rough paraphrase to be sure)
You have your religion,
I have mine.
You will not change me.
I will not change you.

AND LEAVE IT AT THAT.
