re: #207 ConservatismNow!

I don’t care what those scholars believe. If their proposed laws violate my rights as an American citizen, then they can stick it. This has nothing to do with getting involved with religious doctrinal matters, but with U.S. Law. Sharia law does not supercede the U.S. Constitution. There is no gray area at all.

But what if those Islamic scholars sue and claim that you are violating their freedom of religion by banning the practice of their religion?

This happened in real life with the the peyote-taking Native American shaman religion. Went all the way to Supreme Court, because their central religious practice violated US drugs laws.

Problem is, I have no idea how the Supreme Court ruled! Anybody know?
