Still, you are following the tradition that John of Damascus started, the christian mocking of Islam. Your arguments are at least dating from the dark ages of europe. It was called the "dark ages" in west europe because our neighbours, the prosperous muslims, were living in an age of enlightment.
Ah, the USA needs this.

Btw, great that this thread not has been locked, and people are allowed to express their political views, either they are based on their religous faith or secular views. I don't know what moderators think, but perhaps they notice we still are on the political side, and less the religious.
The secular thinker, Jürgen Habermas, said, not a long time ago, that religious arguments are as valid as secular arguments. I agree with him, and that's a reason I feel that the ban of religious discussions on AD not is the best solution.

Are you saying that Sharia law does not practice stoning or caning such as was done in Pakistan?
Please educate us as to how Sharia could be implemented acceptably in the USA.
Please show me anything hateful or prejudicial that I have posted against

The point of this discussion is the possible inclusion of Sharia law and other cultural practices of immigrants into this century's nations.
Paranoia run rampant. I am not worried.
I have Muslim friends and none of them follow Sharia law.

They can't in the USA. Besides, I don't think many American Muslims would find Sharia law appealing.
Yes, sharia do kill people. It's no better than christian laws that kill people in Uganda. And what about hindus stoning each other to death every day.

The principles of sharia is followed in the egyptian justice system, still they do not stone people to death.
As said earlier in this thread, sharia is not a specific set of laws.
From wikipedia:
"Modernists, traditionalists and fundamentalists all hold different views of Sharia, as do adherents to different schools of Islamic thought and scholarship. Different countries and cultures have varying interpretations of Sharia as well."
With this knowledge, your comments appear hateful toward a specific religion and full of prejudices. I would be happy if you could prove me wrong, though I know you can't.

Never will happen, this country was found on religious freedom and diversity.
From what I know, most of the founding fathers held to deism and Freemasonry tenets. However, they did respect the rights of people who were Christians and such.

Heh, stoning was also done by the Jewish and gentiles during the old testament times. So Hindus are not alone, but technically speaking as Christians, we now have a choice about stoning. Jesus never mentioned not to stone someone.
I'm not sure how it is exactly for Hindus, and why they actually stone people.

Haha, they pretty much use whatever is on hand, most of the times they are about the size of a baseball or softball. And they stone in groups.
Come back to life?? Lol, stoning means to kill. There isn't no coming back.
