August 19, 201016 yr Author My biggest problem with this is that this would NEVER come close to happening in Saudia Arabia or Iran or any other Muslim country. It happens here because "it's the American way". We don't live in a melting pot, we live in a salad bowl. The most surprising thing to me regarding recent posts here on BGP is the lack of comments regarding Muslim treatment of women. Muslim women are treated like low class tramps, and imo their treatment of women in their society is deplorable.
August 19, 201016 yr So if I make statements about how the law SHOULD be the SC is going to agree? Who gives a darn what one person says about what the laws of the country should be? That conversation happens thousands of times every day. At first it was one person that said, "No taxation without representation". That idea caught on and others begin saying it. Hello Revolutionary war and the Unitred States of America. Besides, how can the SC stop their religion and what they believe, that would violate their rights caus we are so concerned about that.
August 19, 201016 yr Overall, I agree. However, I don't even think the % matters. Let each district decide regardless of their rationale. I'm good with that, I was just giving how I would handle it if I had the authority. I wouldn't give it off unless it was in the ten percent range or so myself.
August 19, 201016 yr We don't live in a melting pot, we live in a salad bowl. We 100% do not live in a melting pot. I like think of it more like a stew. I can pick out the pieces I want to enjoy, but other ingredients still leave their mark even if I don't want them too. (Works the exact way if I were a Muslim, or other minority too).
August 19, 201016 yr So you're saying you believe some judges are considering making Sharia law the law of the land? Can you give me some examples? Sure, Judge Joseph Charles... http://www.thefoxnation.com/justice/2010/08/06/sharia-law-comes-new-jersey?page=3
August 19, 201016 yr Author Overall, I agree. However, I don't even think the % matters. Let each district decide regardless of their rationale. That is good in theory Clyde, but not in reality. The Florence mayor even eluded to the fact that they feared not approving the Mosque for fear of a lawsuit. I am sure the school districts would also fear lawsuits. It's a very litigious society we live in. I am sure the ACLU would love to go after any public school district pro bono, and the liberal media would eat it up.
August 19, 201016 yr Author Sure, Judge Joseph Charles... http://www.thefoxnation.com/justice/2010/08/06/sharia-law-comes-new-jersey?page=3 That's scary precedent right there. Will they be stoning their women to death in our town squares next when they are accused of adultery? Will the judges give a hall pass when the husband decides to cut of his wife's nose and ears (common treatment of Muslim women). The precedent's that are being set are simply outlandish and unbelievable.

Hello Revolutionary war and the Unitred States of America. Besides, how can the SC stop their religion and what they believe, that would violate their rights caus we are so concerned about that. I'm not saying we violate any religion's rights. I'm simply saying that your contention that Sharia Law will somehow become American law is without merit.
August 19, 201016 yr I'm not saying we violate any religion's rights. I'm simply saying that your contention that Sharia Law will somehow become American law is without merit. Not sure where I said it was going to become American law...I said that there are plenty out there who want it too including Muslim leaders Next they are going to want us to allow Sharia Law...oh wait, some already do.
August 19, 201016 yr Sure, Judge Joseph Charles... http://www.thefoxnation.com/justice/2010/08/06/sharia-law-comes-new-jersey?page=3 Shocking to say the least but hardly proof that Sharia law will become US law. This is just one whacky judge and it was proven so by the Appellate Court overturning the ruling.
August 19, 201016 yr I'm not saying we violate any religion's rights. I'm simply saying that your contention that Sharia Law will somehow become American law is without merit. Double speak Clyde.... If a Muslim can't beat his wife then we are denying his religious rights..
August 19, 201016 yr That is good in theory Clyde, but not in reality. The Florence mayor even eluded to the fact that they feared not approving the Mosque for fear of a lawsuit. I am sure the school districts would also fear lawsuits. It's a very litigious society we live in. I am sure the ACLU would love to go after any public school district pro bono, and the liberal media would eat it up. Of course there would be a lawsuit against Florence. They have no legal ground to shut this down. I'd ask again how we should rationalize schools closing for Christmas but staying open for other religion's holidays. I don't think "that's the way it's always been" will fly.
August 19, 201016 yr Shocking to say the least but hardly proof that Sharia law will become US law. This is just one whacky judge and it was proven so by the Appellate Court overturning the ruling.How long do you think it will be before we have a Muslim on the Supreme Court??
August 19, 201016 yr Shocking to say the least but hardly proof that Sharia law will become US law. This is just one whacky judge and it was proven so by the Appellate Court overturning the ruling. Just one step...gotta wait til it plays out. As Muslims get more control in America, I think we'll see this topic come up more often IMO.
