Terrorism a Disease?

So this whole Mosque being built near Ground Zero issue is causing a whole lot of controversy, and with that comes ignorance. Personally, I have no problem with this mosque being built. Yes it may be near Ground Zero, and I can see why some people may be upset about that. But the ignorance factor I am talking about is when you hear these grown people on the news saying things like "They're building a mosque to the terrorists." I'm sorry. I didn't realize terrorism was a disease and that since 9/11 people have been placing muslims into the "they're automatically terrorists" categories. Same thing as a church in Gainesville, Fl that decided to make burning the Quran a ceremony in "respect" to the 9/11 victims. The governor of Gainesville himself even said that the church was an embarrassment. It is ignorance and stereo-typing like this that is part of the reason there will never be such thing as "world peace." Sorry, Miss America.
