I was truly surprised on the way numbers had changed by the end of the discussion. Although i didnt day much, as i was sitting there analyzing everything i have learned a d found out actually a lot. To be honest i was really into checking up on the Egypt thingy on a daily basis. But as my classmates were talking amongst each other about why the mosque should be built or not, it really taught me to really get into the problems within our society, country and the world. In the beg. i was on the maybe side. Just because like Mr. Palo said both sides have great reasons. But as the discussion was coming to an end, i realized that our world in general can be very judgemental, and that goes for all causes and situations. A lot of our people in society look for the negative things about that particular event or situation and drag it in and basically focus on that. But in reality there's also a positive side to this situation. At the end i really thought about it, and yes, although muslims are known to be terrorists in our country, the majority are not on that side. There are many muslims out there who are NOT terrorists and that will not destroy our country. People shouldn't be put down for what they believe and what they don't believe in because it is a FREE country and people are welcome to worship and believe in what ever they wish to believe in.
