Petition Against Sharia Law In The UK

Chicken Girl made me aware of this Times article on Sharia Law in the UK, which is a despicable attempt at getting Sharia law set up for Muslims. The UK is not a Muslim country, it is a secular country, and as such every person should follow the same set of laws. We do not allow Rastafarians to smoke cannabis simply because it is in their religion to do so, so why should it be any different for Muslims? Laws should be made for the good of the people, not for the good of religion. That is why we have legalized abortion, despite the outcry of various Christian groups, and why we scrapped the blasphemy laws.

Pat Condell posted this video on YouTube, highlighting why we shouldn’t bow to Islam.

If you are a citizen of the UK, and you disagree with Sharia Law being imposed in our courts, then please sign this e-petition to our government.
