North Carolina has become the seventh state to prohibit state judges from considering Islamic law in family cases, joining what critics say is a national anti-Muslim campaign.

...

North Carolina now joins Arizona, Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Tennessee, according to Religion News Service, in banning Islamic Sharia law. A constitutional amendment seeking the same change in Alabama will be on the 2014 ballot. In Missouri, the governor vetoed an anti-Sharia bill because of its potential impact on international adoptions.

But the law in Oklahoma was struck down in court as unconstitutional,

I don’t understand why it needs to be banned. It is not the law of our land. Do we formally ban, German, Italian or Swedish law?

State religion-related laws are getting into 14th Amendment territory imo. However judges interpret such laws, Section 1 of the 14th Amendment prohibits the states from making laws which abridge enumerated constitutonal protections which includes freedom of religious expression.

Shortly 9/11 I advocated just that on this forum, only to be met with comments like “good luck with that”.

We don’t because Germans and Swedes aren’t insurrectionists.

Some of the pronouncements encased in the sharia law of mohammedums are

1) stoning of adulterers
2) cutting of the hands of thieves
3) killing apostates

A state would have to be filled with idiots to vote for sharia law. Banks can not charge interest on loans under sharia law. Women have no rights under sharia law. You can murder your wife and children and get away with it simply by saying they dishonored your family name under sharia law. You can marry a pre-pubescent child under sharia law and have sex with her even though it kills her. The law is barbaric and satanic.

U.S. District Court Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange struck down as unconstitutional an Oklahoma state amendment banning Sharia law.

It just seems to me that if we enforce OUR laws, Sharia Law would automatically be null and void.

Gods law says adulterers shall be stoned to death. The bible isn’t ban....oh....wait, never mind.

At least banning Sharia Law is a step in the right direction, the Muslims can flock to the states that allow it. Us conservatives can flock to the states that don’t.

More drawing lines in the sand.
