Bottom line: the Founders’ Constitution permits States to prohibit the building of mosques. For the safety and security of the American people, perhaps the time for them to start doing it is now.

If we started closing Mosques and treating Muslim Americans like they don't have the same right as the rest of us more of them will start sympathizing with IS. You would essentially create the problem you are trying to prevent.
Ever hear the saying that you catch more flies with honey then with vinager?
Yes, by all means, give the terrorists more cause, while simultaneously bringing more over to their side. Truly you are the most brilliant man on Earth.

Treaty of Tripoli. Oh, and proof that your 'God' prohibits the breaking of the 2nd Commandment:

Bottom line: the Founders' Constitution permits Islam to have the same level of tax exemption as Christianity .

The Founders of BF's imagination, that is: a bunch of Bible literalists; just like himself.

Unless there is some legitimate zoning reason for preventing a mosque in a particular place that would apply equally to any other church, then no. The First Amendment forbids the government to pick and choose between religions, and the 14th Amendment applies that rule to the states.

Bear in mind these people want war and destruction. They want innocents to suffer, even their own. That way Jesus can return and Rapture the handful of people that they and he agree with. So they aren't actually trying to prevent anything, even if they do claim otherwise.
How? "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble , and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
If you prohibit the building of mosques, you must also prohibit the building of churches, synagogues and other religious assembling places.
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws ."
You couldn't be bothered to read the Constitution, could ya? You only took for granted that it supported what you want it to support? I haven't read it, as I'm not a US citizen, but I still know the above about it.
Bottom line: the Constitution affords Bryan Fischer the right to spew absolute bullshit for fun and profit, so long as that bullshit does not infringe the rights or the liberties of others. Should any of the mutton-heads that believe said bullshit choose to act upon Bryan's assertions, he can deny having anything to do with it so long as he has not delivered explicit instructions to the perpetrators of the crime. This leaves the rest of us with no recourse except to draw parallels between Bryan Fischer and similar toxic waste.
What about the first ammendment? The Koran that Jefferson had? The mosques built since at least 1890? The point is, Bryan, when you say blatant lies, they are easy to detect
Bryan Fischer :" Beware the Muslims, bad things are happening in their mosques. Be afraid!"
Public: "Hey, What's happening in that church ?"
Bryan Fischer :" No, the mosques, watch the mosques. Be afraid. Ignore the church behind the curtain. Watch the big, bad mosques"
And so on, as infi-fucking-nitum.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
