    Is Islam and Shariah Law compatible with United States? Democracy? even a Republic?
    Are the values that are imposed in Shariah Law translatable to equal rights? respect for others? even a 'Live and Let Live' philosophy?
    What will America look like with Shariah? Should we be studying Dearborn, MI more closely?

    In the U.K; Christian schools are required to invite Muslim Imam's in to speak with students about Islam.
    Should Muslim schools be required to have Christian Priests or Pastors come in to speak with their students about Christianity?

    No, of course it cant.

    In America, women are equal under law.

    In Sharia law, women are property.

    Oh sure, there are CRIMINAL atrocities against women in the US, and those guilty of said atrocities are punished, instead of the female victims.

    Ive already provided you with 20 separate links to womens "RIGHTS" in Islam.

    Why are you even in America?

    You would be hard pressed to find a religion that is as opposed to any form of freedom as Islam.

    Born here. Christian. I used to believe in "Live and Let Live" for Muslims in America. I now realize that when their numbers increase in any geographical location, they demand concessions and practice Sharia right under our noses. They go into our American courts and demand their Sharia "rights" under "our Constitution." Our schools are accepting "free text books" from Quatar, loaded with information about Islam, the Muslim heritage, Islamic art, etc. They are attempting to Islamisize our country through our children by stealth. If you have children, be certain to review their books and curriculum. Refuse to allow your kids to participate in these activities. You'll be shocked to see how much information about Muslims and Islam is filtered throughout the text books. What would Islamisizing America do to our quality of Life?

    Most of those women are parrots who have never set foot in the ME.

    I am a natural born American and my family has been here since New York was New Amsterdam..

    Prove what you wrote here describing how it is different from Christian and Jewish law.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Almost none of this is due to Sharia.

    Islam isnt just a religion like Christianity, its also a form of government.


    Its all due to Islam, where women are property, not humans.

    All of those women were raped and executed in their own home countries in accordance to their laws and customs based on Islam and sharia law.

    If youre actually an American, then youve got no freakn clue what life under sharia law, even looks like.

    Go read all those articles and tell me you actually believe that kinda system of laws would, ever in a million years, be allowed in America.

    Its freakn insanity.

    I am an American and I do know what Sharia law looks like.. Further, it is NOT the same in every Muslim country.

    A democracy in any form is an anathema to Muslim beliefs.Only clerical leaders have the right to translate laws and only the established laws of Islam are recognized. As pointed out, females are property and have no right to voice any opinions that affect society.

    As for our resident Islam-apologist and missionary, Margot 02, she either cannot or will not cite any specific links to back up her claims of what a free society Islam is.

    If her posts weren't so darned hilariously biased, I'd put her on Ignore.

    Nope, do you have some axe to grind against freedom and women's rights?

    See, in America, the she deserved to get raped because of how she's dressed, defense doesn't fly

    actually try that in Boro Park Brooklyn...........or Crown Heights, Brooklyn.................or better yet Mea Shearim Jerusalem.............

    You see your selective outrage is stunning. But here is the thing.......much of the anti-woman sentiment in the Middle East is not Shariah law........................

    Now that is truly a well thought-out, intelligent response.

    NOT!

    Another one of your biased posts that only show your devotion to an evil, barbarous cult. :flame:

    Islam can be democratic when you don't mind having only one set of policies on the ballot.

    Have you ever heard of Majlis?? The citizens can approach their governor or emir directly one day a week usually and have their grievances heard..
