What the building consists of is extremely unimportant to me. Jewish centers in many areas hold the same things and most of them are open to the community (some with a minimal fee for some of the faciliites), but that doesn't minimize the fact that it's a Jewish center. I also never forget that the YMCA and YWCA are Christian-based.
That's very apparent regardless of whether the entire community can use the facilities. It's also no surprise when the entire community, in some religiously and racially/ethnicity heterogenous areas, does NOT use the facilities.

So? LOL. Christianity remains the dominant religion in America.
Anyway, I've gone back to not giving a shit about this topic since there's a mosque at ground zero that has been there for 30 years.
