There will be Mosques, Muslim schools, and an infrastructure that will make it possible for the Muslims who live there never to have to mingle with non-Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>There is no construction taking place.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The state of Texas has launched about a half dozen investigations into this project.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>That includes criminal investigations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>And, the US Department of justice is also investigating.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>This matter, and similar matters, are taken very seriously, and actions are being taken to address all concerns.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8230;The EPIC City is the brainchild of the East Plano Islamic Center.

Baptists do not murder non-Baptists. This has the potential to become something like what the Gaza Strip devolved into. Muslims need to be encouraged to assimilate. If they choose not to assimilate, they might consider living elsewhere. There is nothing wrong with keeping the traditions of the place you lived before you came to America. However, if you live here, you need to swear allegiance to our Constitution and follow our customs. If you are not willing to do that, please move to someplace that has rules you like.<\/p>\n<div class=\"RvKX6jqw\" style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1567704208086-0\" style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anyone who has read the Koran has encountered verses that instruct Muslims to kill the infidels (non-Muslims).
