           In the "Church becoming less relevant among teens" article which I found to very informative and enlightening. It taught me why church is becoming less relevant to teens. The importance of religion among teens is being lost because of technology and these peer to peer networking sites. Due to the increase of online activity as well as school and work it leaves very little time to attend church and worship. For Instance these networking site like facebook, myspace and twitter all enable today's teens to create their own virtual society instead of interacting in the real world society.

This article gives kind of a back story on Imam feisal Abdul rauf and gives in detail the plans he has for the building of this mosque. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf building this mosque where the World Trade Center once stood is disrespectful and wrong. The funding for the moque is provided by unknown donors who are from the same place as the hijackers who bombed the World Trade Center. For instance three of the original participants in the 9/11 attacks all listened to the same preacher that Major Hasan did. He is a violent radical who operates out of Yemen. Although no one knows the background of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf the mayor's office has yet to tell us anything at all.
