If you replaced "mosque" with "jewish synagogue" is it still funny? Or replace "mosque" with "christian day care". Is it still funny?

it could be though the funny names for some of the places do not make that much sense, a liquor store named Morehammered by a christian day care is well not that good of a joke?

Have you been to Continental Europe? A place that seems devoid of zoning; it is not uncommon to have a day care across the street from a sex shop, next door to a bar, if you are focused on your path it is really not a big deal.

If the only source of humor is the fact that it is muslims being made fun of then I fail to see the humor.

actually making fun of people is funny; I guess you find roasts crude, rude, offensive and devoid of humor as well?

If Richard Dawkins tried to open a sex shop next to a prominent Baptist church in Atlanta, GA do you think christians would just laugh it off as Dawkins trying to promote religious tolerance?

I am unaware of zoning restrictions in Atlanta, nor do i see how a sex shop promotes religious tolerance.

As someone who prefesses that they are Roman Catholic repeatedly here, why would I have a clue what baptists may think?
