Yep. Is he the one who used to hangout at the Whitehouse with King George bin Bushi al Crawfordi?

No, that's Prince Bandar. He's a "royal bastard" but he's so smart and understands westerners so well that he's been favored over some of his legitimate siblings.

Anyone want to pitch-in on an "intercultural faith center" located in Mecca or Medina?

Sorry, misread your post. I thought you were talking about something that actually existed.

So, you want to wrap a note around that rock you just threw? What's your point?

It's kind of funny/sad when those who are so immersed in American exceptionalism don't feel the same way about the exceptional liberties provided for in our Constitution. It's quite likely that an intercultural faith center would not be accepted in Mecca or Medina, but that does not mean one should not be accepted here. Unlike Saudi Arabia we do not have leaders ordained by God or Allah (good luck getting elected as a non-christian, however). We are not a theocracy, but a nation that insures religious freedom. Accordingly, we send a message to the rest of the world about the exceptional amount of freedom we enjoy here by eliminating any governmental interference to the center.

Regards,

D-Ray
