Unlike many other recently proposed mosques and Islamic centers, the construction of a new Muslim community center in Louisville, Ky., has not been the subject of controversy. Courier-Journal reporter Peter Smith cites a recent Pew Forum survey that found that 62% of Americans say that Muslims should have the same rights as other groups to build houses of worship in local communities, while 25% say that local communities should be able to prohibit the construction of mosques if they do not want them.
