I'm wondering if anyone knows and are following the march of sharia law,how devastating it will be if we continue to let it take over our country completely. look at what is happening in Detroit . Do some reading about it. I'm not going to tell you what to read that way it won't be one sided. But do look up some info about it. It will scare you and it will be worse than anything going on.

Are you referring to this?

Keep in mind, that good or bad, Sharia Law is very clear and consistent. With Christianity, you are playing a guessing game. No religion is more conniving than the American Christian. I have a wife, two daughters and two grandaughters, so I would hate to see Sharia Law come into power, but as a man, it would be the better of the two. Sharia Law follows the mandate of the American Republican and Tea Party very closely on issues other than women.

the so called "guessing game" is purely a function of one's personal beliefs and perspective. You represent ONLY one perspective when you refer to Christianity and "conniving" VS Sharia law......which is consistent.

The same can be said for Hitler. He was consistent and unflinching in his belief and expectation. And his following was determined very simply....do what I say or you will die!!!

Please do not insult other thinking persons by comparing the tea party and others to Sharia law belief. It may be your opinion/interpretation but does not by a long shot represent what others believe.

Watch out for the straw analysis method....looking at any subject through a straw...you know like the media does....reaching very narrow perspective conclusions (looking at the side of an elephant through a straw one should conclude the world is grey....just ask the media, Obama and others who pick up and run with minimal input.

Some statements are so ridiculous that they don't warrant a reply. Help is only a phone call away.

Never mind the fact that all the sharia hype is overblown.

In a nutshell, the only time a judge can consider sharia law is for CONTRACT law when both parties sign a contract stating that sharia law is to be used AND when those clauses don't clash with civil law.

In other words, it's pretty much the same as if two Orthodox Jews entered into a contract and wrote into the terms that they would be bound by the kashrut. If someone were contesting the contract, the judge would have to take into consideration that the kashrut was written into the contract. ...just like any other kind of clause.

Once again with the voice of intelligent reason. I think some topics are just too complicated for some folks to comprehend. Thanks for a clear and correct post.

Now that the legal similarities(?) have been touted how about an intelligent list of those things most the real life, day to day people do not or would not like about sharia law?

Somehow the "rest of the story" does not get as much light...eh?

We have no need as those things are not legal here.

Yea they did but they also abided by the laws of the US not Germany, Ireland, Italy.......... they didn't ask to be exempt from the US Constitution in fact many of them fought and died to preserve our democracy

I speculate that the ultimate goal of these particular Muslims is to eempt themselves completely from the laws of this country. What concernns me is that the government allowed American Indians the right to their own courts. Does that set precedent?????

the key word in my post was assimilation. without it we cannot be united and if not united then divided we fall

Major problem and a good reason to not allow any religion or non-USA laws into our courts or politics at all.

Here's some great stuff from Sharia Law:

Within Sharia law, there is a category of crimes known as the hudud (Koranic) offences, for which there are specific penalties for particular crimes. For example, fornication is punished by stoning, the consumption of alcohol by lashing, and theft by the amputation of limbs.

I'm sure all the pro-choice people will appreciate that in the case of fornication, the gal is stoned while the guy goes scott free. I guess Sharia Law doesn't think a woman has the right to do what she wants with her own body.....

Hey Katz, I don't see Sharia Law in our future, but am ready to fight to keep it out of our country. The worst is the way they treat women. Nasty bunch of laws there. I will be under again for the next two days, but will be back on Saturday if I feel OK by then. You keep posting with your good heart.
