Just as the question states. Should Muslims be barred from holding governmental public office? At a state level? or a federal level? Both? None?
The only people residing in America who should be prohibited from holding governmental public office are those individuals with "Dual Citizenship" to another country.
I think we should ban Christians from holding public office, if they hold the Bible over the US Constitution
I suppose I look at it this way. When anyone who is elected takes their oath of office, they vow to support and defend our constitutional process. If Muslim candidates can, in good conscience, take this oath, without reservation, then why not? I suspect though, that if we find out there were reservations, or as a function of their elected office we find evidence of their willingness to introduce or otherwise advance Sharia, there would be a problem. Perhaps it's a maturity issue that folks who are Muslim have to adapt to or assimilate into. For those, like Omar who continue to advance obviously problematic policy that doesn't support constitutional process, there need to be remedies where appropriate to protect citizens from their Sharia Zeal.
Can you offer one reason to suggest that Muslims are different to any other religious cult, and therefore a reason to make rules exclusive to them. By the way did you know that the first thing the nazis did was preclude jews from public office?
Nope, I personally cant, and I think they should be allowed to hold any public office as long as they meet the citizen requirements. Im curious what other people think. I have seen many calls for not allowing a muslim to hold office though.
They shouldn't be allowed citizenship and therefore any office for the simple fact that their death cult 'religion' is at odds with our Constitution......they only get into this country by committing fraud in the first place.
Eventually we will have a large community of Muslims and will begin to experience the same social problems found in every other Western country that allows them in. That is not Islamophobia it's just reality.
Their religion orders them to kill you, me, and our families. Muslims are allowed to rape non-Muslim women. They are ordered to rob non-Muslims. Do they just claim 'freedom of religion' in court. Some countries will not allow them in.
Sounds like you don't know the requirements of becoming a U.S. citizen. Muslims, by their very faith, can't truthfully take the oath: "I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."
nope, we have millions of Muslims and there are treated very different here than in Europe. Muslims in the USA have opportunity and equality, unlike in France and Belgium
these are all bigoted, baseless lies meanwhile the Founder of the Lutheran Church, representing 50 million Christians, called on Jews to be murdered and their synagogues burned.
