Not good. It'll take tragedy to make some folks realize just how bad this decision really is.

 

i dont believe that any religion should be mixed with civil law. bad idea all he way around.

 

im shocked. the brits are pretty stubborn. well, not anymore.

what a shame.

 

That is insane. :huh:

 

this brings up the question, what about muslims that dont want to be tried/judged by religious law, but prefer secular/civil law? will they have a choice?

this is kinda like tribal courts. how do you sort out jurisdiction?

 

Designer justice. Want your wife flogged in public? Sharia! Want to get away with having a beer in public? British Law!

Dumbest. Idea. Ever.

Britain was once a great nation. With great minds.

I doubt that the details of this are as scary as the headline. But this is not inconsequential.

Camel's nose under the tent, as the old Arab saying goes.
