I now find Freedom of Religion to be a somewhat difficult issue. If the religion (Islam) wants to overturn the Constitution, wants to overthrow civil society, wants to impose Sharia law, wants to deny basic rights to others in society — then how could I justifiably defend such a religion and say that it has a right to exist in America?

You can’t and it doesn’t. Gave that one some thought this morning before this article appeared. The founding fathers seemed to focus on one particular religion in their writings and common was the theme “true religion”. The commonality was with the “word of God” and Jesus Christ, and the moral principles enumerated in the Bible and no other book, that would serve preserve out Republic and individual liberty.

I don’t think you have a solid grasp of what “freedom of religion” means in the constitution. So don’t make any big decisions on whether you agree with the founders or not based on your misunderstandings. :)

If Shria ever makes any ground in the USA, it will be because liberals, Marxist citizens of the world, impose it on the people of the US through extra legal means. It will be unconstitutional, but they don’t care about the rule of law anymore. They wannabe global rulers. Muslims would pop their heads like a zit.
