On the bright side, I don't think it'll take me too long to learn the phrase, "Do what I said, bitch" in flawless Farsi.

1.)Laws change according to the morality of people or if they aren't enforced. It is nothing to be certain of. There is one true defense against sharia and that is proper education into what it entails and how a society works after it is put in place. It doesn't work. It is also highly incompatible with western society and it breeds poverty.



2.)We have slutty diners, MUCH better beer and real football here in Europe and sharia is indeed creeping into certain places here. Your argument is invalid

The craft brewing industry here in the States might have something to say about that!

Im asking this question because of some of the people I have encountered that want extra laws made banning it and they say they would never vote for ANY Muslim politician because of it.

SO I ask, do you fear Sharia Law and think its a possibility here in the US.

I do not.

Not at any time in the near future. Having a president and a majority in congress might have some influence, but then we would still have a SCOTUS.

There is a huge difference between accepting non-radical muslims, the ones that comprise the vast majority of the muslim population in America, and not wanting to make laws that oppress them, and being accepting of radical muslims who would force their faith on us all.

Sane people accept non-radical muslims, and sane people also reject radical muslims that would want to commit acts of violence, and push their faith down people's throats. Though that is the same of every religion.

Again, you miss the point. It's a test of wills. Check out any inter denominational marriage that involves Muslims. You will find the vast majority of those marriages show the non-Muslim converting to Islam, and not vice-versa. You don't have to be violent to win a test of wills. The Left takes pride in its love of tolerance and diversity. These are perfect conditions for "non-violent" Muslims to step in and assert their will -- peacefully.

The terror & reckless violence comes later..... after the non-violent, yet persistent, Muslims have established Sharia Law amongst "everyone else" in this country.

Grant it I like to play soccer more than I do football, but us Americans really do not like theocracy. Well except those radical Christian Conservatives who are bigger threat to liberty and freedom than radical Islam here at home. But even at that there isnt much of a chance that America would become a theocracy, they just dont have the numbers anymore.

But Sharia wouldnt be accepted it would be forced just like everywhere else that it has been implemented. There would be a lot of drama before we got anywhere near that happening.

A President and majority of what? What politicians in this country want to implement any form of Sharia?

No offense... but US beer is crap compared to European trademarks. Holstein, Becks, Staropramen, Carlsberg... and the list can go on to infinity. Best beers in the world.

I put Budweiser on the same rank as EFES beer from Turkey... and just so you get the idea, EFES in turkish means beer.

Do you really think people who support things like SSM, the legalization of marijuana, equal rights for women, bacon, alcohol, etc, etc would let anyone make those things illegal? It's just ridiculous.

Well you seemed to imply that it was somewhat possible to have a president and majority of Congress who support Sharia. If no politicians believe in implementing Sharia currently, then how do you think they'll take over Congress and the Presidency?
 
Even moderate Muslims wouldn't invoke Sharia in the states. You'd have to find a loud, growing sect of radical Muslims in America big enough to alter policy. If they were to even begin it, they'd be slaughtered.

Hell, I'd just drive by anyone down here with a Confederate flag on their pick-up and tell them what's happening. You think the Klan's gone? They'll be back, in huge numbers, and even celebrated if radical Islam became a distinct force in this country.

I'm not talking about Bud, that **** is nothing but piss water.

I'm talking about DogFishHead, Samuel Adams, Sweetwater, Stone, Sierra Nevada, the list really goes on and on.

It's also hilarious that you mention Budweiser as an example of crappy American beer, while mentioning Becks as an excellent European beer, when Becks is owned by the same company that produces Budweiser. :lol:

Um, nobody implied this to be the case. The op question was "do you think Sharia law is a real possiblity in the US". My response is that without a president and majority in congress who supported it, it wouldn't happen. Is this really so difficult to comprehend?

Look I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. I read it as you believing a President and majority of Congress supporting Sharia Law was a real possibility. I'm sorry I misread your post.

Sharia law in the US is ridiculous. Muslims don't want that. Sharia law doesn't apply beyond their religious private life.

Do you really think the Liberal Left is strong enough to keep Sharia Law out of this country once the Christian Conservatives are gone? I don't.

Had one sip of Bud Light, tasted like popcorn water. Not the best taste. Give me a Boston Lager, or a DogFishHead IPA anyday!
 
No. The only people seriously worried about sharia law in the US are dumb hicks who have probably never even seen a Muslim.
 
I love dogfishhead IPA 90 (120 makes me invisible).

Yes, but one is made in Germany, the other in the USA. It still is considered: import beer over there.
