Archbishop says we will end up incorperating Sharia Laws.... my thoughts below what are yours.
As a Englishman proud and true I believe we have some of the best ways of life in the world. Now admittedly it is not perfect but when I look around the world and see how others live I consider myself lucky.
Now what makes this country is in part each and every component. One of those components is the Law of the land, to change the law would in essence change the land itself. People came here because of the benefits they can claim and I dont just mean money but the way of life, they come here for our standard of life.
That standard of life is supported by our laws if we lose or taint them laws with others and import the laws of others which have been shown not to work because you only have to see the countries they have fled from. Then England will no longer be England but another wreck people will want to flee from.

I couldn't believe that the Archbishop said this!
However I can't see it happening. It's very simple in my eyes if you come and work in the UK you abide by those rules. It's your personal duty to understand our laws and adhear to them, if you don't want because you believe the law of your home land is better - then you should not have come to the UK!
Personally if this happens I will leave this country, it's the first thing Monika said when she saw the news as well. Sharia law is barbaric and so sexist it beggars belief
These issues should not even be open for debate, a complete non starter from day one. But why is the government letting this happen?
I find it altogether quite frightening to be honest.
As a thought why are we so protective of the pound yet are prepared to consider sacrificing our legal system?

I knew there'd be a thread like this!  I agree that Britain should not as a whole be subject to Islamic law, but Rowan Williams is no idiot, he knows what he's doing here... |

I suspect his misplaced religious tolerance makes him feel it is "fair" to give Muslims access to Islamic justice on civil/faith matters. Without the medievalist punishment regimes, of course! Wolsey... or Beckett?!  |

Must quite frustrating if you want to pick your nose or have a wank! sharia is a lot more than that!! it's the way of life of a lot of muslim countries. admittatly the punishments are extreme, but anymore than countries like USA with capital punishment? i'm sure there are laws that could be incorporated, such as the archbishop mentioned about family law, once it measures up to the law of the land! |
