This is not an islamic country, despite what you want it to be. Not yet at least.

Your translation is not a translation at all. It's just a lie. She doesn't want her home invaded by the noise of a violent, misogynystic death cult.

Your continued anti-Christian sentiments expressed on the FR tell me you probably would not want to hear Christian songs blasted through your windows either. So lighten up and with with the lies and specious arguments and straw men.

islam is not a religion. It's a political cult.

I dont think so. You see, WHY should a christian be FORCED to listen to muslime prayer calls? The only thing wrong with this mans statement, is it is not PC enough for liberals!

I myself dont want muslime horns waking me up, or disturbing the peace at all hours.

You did not read the answer you critiqued, what the writer does not want is anyone's religion proselityzing from a loud speaker - three times daily!!!! It's bad enough that the religion in question inflames people to become haters and murderers. But the real problem is that any religion would be appoved to use loud speakers on a continuous manner to "shout" to anyone within hearing range, their "prayers". Wrong, it will not happen in the USA, that is the difference with muslim world, where things are forced down people's throats and ears, and this land of the free. The muslim people did not make us free, and they will not take away American freedoms. Free from hatred religions we will stand.

I have never heard church bells ringing at ten oclock at night, and whats more there is a big diff between bells and and preaching over a loudspeaker, if it was in my neighborhood I would be pissed off enough to call the police for these stinky winkies disturbing my peace.

WRONG-O antirepublicrat. Correct translation = It's OUR Christian-founded country, and we'll keep it that way. YOU want different? Go back home.

If it sounds like a troll, it's probably a troll.

Nope!

Real translation, "I'm all for freedom of religion, as long as YOUR religion isn't forced into my home!

This would be NO different than Christian (or any other) religious TV or radio programming, if you couldn't turn it off! The fact is that if they're going to use loudspeakers to broadcast the call to prayers, that WILL invade the privacy of people in their homes. A better way to go would be to have the mosque buy a radio station, and have the worshipers keep their radios on in their homes and cars.
