I see us as in WAR. Things are different in war. Granted, I see your concern about this being used as a stepping stone. I truly do. However, Conservative Christians aren’t responsible for blowing up buildings, figuring out ways to use biological weapons etc... In fact, they are more of a target to Muslim extremists like this. I agree that this is a gray area and up to interpretation; however, I am not losing any sleep over this one.
You forget that, to the Left, as Rush has pointed out on many occasions, WE are more feared and hated as a danger to this country than any muslim terrorist.
How are we going to stop them from going after the really big threats instead of just extreme muslim terrorists?
