Surrendering to Sharia law

So this is how it ends: not with a bang, but a whimper. The most senior judge in England has declared that Islamic legal principles in Sharia law may be used within Muslim communities in Britain to settle ...

Unbelievable. They don't have to fight us. We're surrendering like sheep. Only the Australian president had the b-lls to tell it like it is. He told them if they didn't want to follow Australian law they should go back to where they came from.

And the US Supreme Court is ready to follow, with members there citing "international norms" instead of our Constitution when defending their decisions.

I agree that this British judge should be removed from the bench. But don't blame the situation on Muslims. If we don't have the courage to defend our culture and our legal system, then shame on us.

Think it couldn't happen here? Culture is the first battle, and we're losing it because we refuse to keep English as the official language of government. This is in part because we also refuse to enforce our immigration laws. What's next?

While at first it seems to make no sense, HISTORY shows that "religious law" has played a major part in the development of worldwide secular law, including the famed U.S. Constitution.

Many religious communities here in the US use their own "law" to settle disagreements among the flock.

Don't worry.

Those guys with the lab coats have already got a dna specific virus bio weapon sitting on the shelf.

Just who in the hell do you think you are to speak for me? You're too ignorant to speak for yourself and your anti-semetic rantings in this forum so please don't put your bigotry and racism on my tongue.
And I'd rather be anything except what you are.

The US Constitution was based on English Common Law and the Magna Carta.

The US Constitution defines a secular government with it's sole reference to religion being exclusionary.

The Magna Carta took power away from the King <the lone lawgiver put on the throne by "god"> and giving it to the Barons and subjects.

The Charter Of Liberties preceeded the Magna Carta by 100 years and was signed by King Henry who agreed the King's authority should be limited.

These three documents are set in direct conflict with religions demand for obediance to a 'higher power".

As a side note prior to signing the Magna Carta, King John was excommunicated by Pope Innocent but bought himself back into the good graces of the Vatican by giving England and Ireland over to papal control and paid out some bucks too.

The only thing religion has contributed to the formation of secular law was a good reason to have secular law.

OH NO! The Muslims are taking over the whole world! Thank God we have our steadfast ally, Israel, to resist the new Caliphate. We should require our elected leaders to swear allegiance to Zionism and promise "enhanced interrogation techniques" for all evildoers who wear funny things on their heads.(OK, the Shriners and Imperial Wizards get a bye.)

And just tell me. Who is going to stop the Muslims from taking over the world? Britain? They've already caved into them. France? Ha!!!!! America? Sure don't look like it, not by themselves.

Your leaders are now allowing the Muslim population in the UK to follow Sharia law instead of English law. Turn your flag upside down and surrender the monarchy to the muslims next.

Right on! I get so sick of morons claiming our laws and constitution came from the bible. If you read the bible it's just as inane and barbaric as the koran, so using it as the basis for law would not be much different from Sharia law. Some of the colorful things left out of the article are how under sharia law a father has the right to murder his daughter for refusing an arranged marriage and the penalty for apostasy is death. Of course, when the church ruled Europe the penalty for heresy was being burned alive. Good old christian values at their finest.

Interestingly, some of the administrative procedures actually were taken from Islam.

English common law is not based upon the Mosaic
Biblical law? What University did you learn this from? At what point in your matriculation thru law school were you taught this doctrine?

Please enlighten us...

English common law was based on Mosaic Biblical law? Where did you come up with that? It was based on judges applying common sense and legal precedent to decide cases. I've never heard any suggestion that "Mosaic Biblical law" had anything to do with it. Where did you get that from? Fortunately they left out the parts about stoning non-believers to death, or killing "idol" carvers, their brothers, their sons, and non-virgin daughters, and keeping their virgin daughters as sex slaves. Fortunately that never made it into common law.
