Re: One Step Too Far

When surveyed, a third of muslims in this country want to adopt Sharia law for family matters.......but I can't see how this could work in practice.....English Law is English Law. Are the muslims expecting us to have their Sharia law thrust upon us? or are they expecting Sharia Law to be observed only for muslims in this country?
I would suggest that if they want Sharia law then they move back to where it is practised. It sems like we are too soft in this country......we accept that other ethnic groups can follow their culture without let or hindrance.....and that is laudable, but forgive me if I object to our culture being adversely affected by the pervceived offence given to these people by me following my cultural preference.
