I read that too... but that is just an opinion. SCOTUS has their's too.Hey, I don't think that the issue warrants a danger level or anything. Radical Muslims are attempting a jihad movement here though legal and economic means though. This is just a fact and those that dismiss it are fools. I am not advocating disliking Muslims... just the asshole ones that want to overthrow the USA, however remote their chances.They estimate that there are 85 Sharia Law Courts in the UK. What about here in the USA? There shouldn't be any, no matter how relaxed it seems. These things operate like stepping stones. You have surely heard of the frog in the pan in cool water that ended up dead as the heat was ever so slowly increased, right? These things seem small now and that is the point. We can't dismiss it as cool because they have a long term plan to ever so slowly turn up the heat in order to win.

This is true. They will try to weasel their way in any way they can. There's no reason to panic or even to worry. Just keep an eye on them. But in our watchfulness, it's important not lose ourselves in the process. The Oklahoma law was obviously the work of blind panic. And they stepped over constitutionality in an effort to defend themselves. Understandable, but this is the very thing we should avoid. If we all keep a cool head, we can defend ourselves from Sharia incursions without wounding ourselves. There are plenty of Muslims, most I'd wager, with honest intentions to integrate smoothly with our society. Let's not harm them in the process of trying to stop the REAL bad guys. We just need to be precise and calm in our reactions to Islamists, and everything will be fine.
 
While I don't believe that Sharia law will ever become the law of the land in the USA, I like mashed potatoes with roasted garlic and butter. Has Elvis left the building?

Thankyou very much.
 
Yes. Obviously in a predominantly Christian country with the law of the land forbidding religious laws Sharia will definitely become a part of our system :roll:

/sarcasm

What does that question mean? Does it mean that the US Gov adopts Sharia law or that some people practice it? If it is the former, then there is ZERO ****ING CHANCE!!! The Christians are a MAJORITY. We're far more likely to have the New Testament enforced on us without our will than we are to have Sharia forced upon us. Anyone who pretends that there is a chance of Sharia law is a thinly veiled xenophobe who is terrified of people of different religions being in the country.

BTW put saur kraut on your mashed potatoes. So. Effing. Delicious.

Who's Kim Song Uhn? Since the US economy is faltering and is about to be overtaken by China's in a decade or so, why don't you concern yourself with that?
Most of all, why am I a homophobe? :lol:

Kim is your cousin from the wrong side of the tracks. And your comments abut waving your panties suggests you are a girlie man in denial. :)

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.

LOL, I love how you put quotation marks around "non-violent," almost as if it is impossible for a Muslim to be "non-violent." LOL

Good post Eagle... I agree. Going further though, we don't want to harm any American by over reacting. We don't want to blindly write new laws that will hinder what it means to be an American just so that we can stop a few bad guys and we never want to repeat what we did to the innocent hard working Japanese Americans of WWII.

My posts have just been in response to those claiming that the idea of stealth jihad is a conspiracy theory which is ridiculous. We landed on the moon and 911 was conducted by terrorists, not the Bush Admin... and Stealth Jihad is real.
 
Sharia law would certainly liberate many Americans from the shackled slavery imposed by the current fascist Corporate tyranny

May be worth a try, as a transition towards democracy and freedom, concepts US citizens have never experienced before

Take it one step at a time. Don't just jump towards democracy and freedom when these ideals are foreign to American people.
Perhaps a gradual transition to a temporary Nazi state from the current Corpocracy and then after a decade or so you could implement Sharia law gradually.

Then democracy and freedom could be phased in by early next century

If the American people are spiritually and emotionally ready for it.

Good luck
 
It's not even a remote responsibility. Especially with the underlined hate for the Muslim culture here in the United States.
 
This is a ridiculous question....no it isn't a possibility.

You know - it is rather interesting watching how some individuals use their brains.

The bias with which people bring to life, I think speaks to something much deeper than their political beliefs. I think it speaks volumes about their education and their parental rearing. On the one hand, you've got people who you say claim that they won't vote for a Muslim. Yet, these vary same people seem to have no problem whatsoever, voting for someone who is actively seeking to become a god.

The implication in saying one won't vote for a Muslim, is that there is something wrong with Islamic beliefs. Yet, these very same people seem to drop any attempt at making the same implication when it comes to supporting one who honestly beliefs that his life on this planet, is one of the stages to becoming a god.

I find this willful stratification of one's own personal beliefs about what's supportable and what's not supportable, to be an amazing contradiction. But, of course, that's what we love to do as human beings is it not - contradict ourselves into oblivion.

In other words, its "OK" to support someone seeking to become a god, but not "OK" to support someone who follows Mohammad. Now, I personally belief that both views are wrong and have no real historical basis for being true. When you study both Mormonism and Islam, you find glaring contradictions in both their doctrines and not just logical contradictions but, but historical and archaeological contradictions as well.

Still, the idea that someone would not take the time to understand the beliefs of the candidate they support, yet be in full opposition to another based upon -guess what- their beliefs, is strikingly hypocritical to me.

No, of course not. The U.S. Constitution is not in danger as a result of any threat of instantiation of Sharia Law.

very good post
 
Absolutely not, sharia law is in direct contradiction to the U.S. Constitution. The only way it could happen is if things fell apart to such a degree that this would functionally no longer be the United States.
 
Hilarious that mashed potatoes got the same amount of votes as yes (2 yes votes were accidental by admission that I know of, TheDemSocialist & Gipper)

If you would've added gravy to the mashed potatoes, I would've been compelled to go that route. :2razz:
