He has the right to preach Sharia law if he desires. Now, with that said, where is the line? Would he be allowed to preach that people should commit murder? What if a private citizen told his neighbor that the neighbor should spank his child? Can he be sent to prison? Very slippery slope here.

Or what if the preacher in the course of his weekly bible readings happens to recite that chapter in Leviticus where it says Homosexuals should be put to death. Then a while later someone in the congregation with a few screws loose kills a homosexual. Under this precedent, the preacher could be locked up for doing nothing but reading a verse as it is written in the Bible. A very slippery slope indeed...

Not even a close comparison. I suggest you read some of the other articles on this case that are readily googled.

The “pastor” was not reading Proverbs to the congregation, he was instructing them on the use of wooden dowels on the naked bottoms of 2 month old children.

The sad thing is every preacher from every church that believes in the Bible should have been speaking out against this. Unfortunately, I guess there aren’t enough churches who believe in the Bible. And there are many who do believe but are cowards.
