Are there folks in this thread that are saying Muslims should be allowed to practice Sharia Law in this country?
I don't know about what's been said in the thread, but I would say that. As long as we allow Jews to practice/follow Mosaic Law that is within the parameters of civil/criminal law then we not only should, but legally have to extend the same to Muslims with regard to Sharia.
If the law in question violates a legal statute then it can't be applied and it only applies to those adherents that voluntarily choose to. That has been the way it has been approached all over the country for both as far as the law is concerned.
