I'm all for it. I'll even wait while you find one. Should I hold my breath or go make popcorn?My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

kallend 2,107 #154 January 12, 2012 QuoteQuoteHowever, that doesn't mean that the decision does *not* now give an advantage to sharia law over the laws of other religions (are there any others besides canon for the catholics?) due to the specific wording, since the decision can be used in court cases referencing sharia law. Does that mean that they would have to write new laws to cover each individual religious law and have a ruling on the constitutionality of each of them? As I understand the rejection, it only addresses Sharia Law because that was only what was written in. It doesn't mean that Sharia Law gets preference over any other religious law. Am I off base here? Maybe the double negative is confusing me. You are correct. The troll is just trolling again.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Changing the language of the amendment to refer to any religious law would cover the situation, I think. QuoteAs I understand the rejection, it only addresses Sharia Law because that was only what was written in. It doesn't mean that Sharia Law gets preference over any other religious law. Am I off base here? Maybe the double negative is confusing me. One of the points of the case is about his will and sharia law. If the will is legal in it's distribution per state law, why does sharia matter? If it's not legal per state law, why should sharia overrule state law, and does that not fly in the face of the current employment of the separation clause? I can envision the case being used in an attempt to force the state to allow precepts of sharia that could go counter to state law. There's no way to know for sure until a case comes up, but the *possibility* is there. Other religions don't have equivalent cases to be used in the same way, unless there's cases regarding canon law that haven't been mentioned.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.
