I said LAWS, not washing. They can wash all they want, but sharia LAW itself cannot be brought here and they need that message to get their fantasy out of their minds.

I stand by what I said and if Islamists were reading this thread they would be laughing their asses off as people are actually defending them. Think long term, this just advances them. Next will be the battle of how hitting women is part of their “culture”, then it will be alcohol offends them....it is never ending right now.

Those are parts of Sharia law. To them, all I mentioned is law.. this may be where this entire thread is getting off track. I can see you are specifically wanting to ban much of what is contained in al-mu'amalat and 'uqubat, however, those are just part of the law*. For those of us who are discussing freedom, we are talking about the entire blanket of Sharia law.

*I think the other way we are being thrown is the term law. We are not talking about writing in the books a legal requirement to follow Sharia, the term 'law' in this case is like how many Christians follow the Noahadic laws, not as a legal definition regulation, but as personal guidelines.

I understand where you are coming from, you don't want the US legal system to adopt the requirement that Sharia law ('law' as in criminal or judicial standards) be required. Most people here are talking about the personal practice of the parts of Sharia law ('law' as in a personal morality) that are part of normal, individual freedoms.

We all are basically talking about two entirely different aspects of this.
