What if Muslims gain control of a city council — let's say in Dearborne Mich. where there is a big concentration of them — and they declare that henceforth Sharia law complete with amputations and stonings will be the only recognized law.

Our Consitution dovetails very nicely with fundamental Christianity. It doesn't do so with fundamental Islam.
