There is currently a bill in the US federal system advocating a Ban on Shariah Law
Here's a quote from it:
Quote:
"Any alien who fails to attest, in accordance with procedures specified by the Secretary of Homeland Security, that the alien will not advocate installing a Sharia law system in the United States is inadmissible."
"Advocating the installation of a Sharia law system in the United States shall constitute a ground for revocation of a person's naturalization under this subsection."
I'm glad that this is happening. We don't need to be walked over by radical muslims like the brits are. Besides, we have one legal system already, we don't need another one.
As President Lincoln declared in his speech in 1858,
"A house divided against itself cannot stand"
I wanted to add that I am aware of the following:
Quote:
Sharia law is intended to be only applicable to Muslims. Christians and other non-Muslims are supposed to be exempt from the provisions of the law; this is a provision that is not universally followed...
