re: #294 Obdicut

Yes, Muslim fundamentalists are terrible on gay rights, absolutely evil on the subject, and should be opposed at every turn when they try to influence legislation or otherwise harass gays.

What does that have to do with the conversation we’re having about arbitration courts, though? If I was a gay dude, I wouldn’t agree to the dispute being arbitrated in a sharia court, and it wouldn’t be.

I have made that clear already. The fundamentalists are the ones pushing the Sharia courts, and increasing control of Muslim community centers and places of worship. Everything that increases their power increases the threat.

Places like London and Amsterdam which encourage their Muslim community to have “their own culture” and make accommodation for the demands of the fundamentalists seeking Sharia are seeing a dramatic rise in these problems. Places like the US where the Muslims are encouraged to integrate and join in the American culture, do not have these increasing problems.

Beyond that, I can not help you Obdicut, because when you have decided to oppose my comments you focus on redefining what I say into a straw man you can knock down and play at being befuddled. As I’ve never seen you spin on behalf of Christian So-Cons trying to gain legal acceptance for their laws and codes, quite the opposite in fact, I’m confused why you and others are so desperate to spin for the Islamists.
