Sharia Law vs. Our Constitution

America is the envy of the world. For the past hundred years we have been the most prosperous, moat powerful, and most generous country the world has ever known. America is the country where ingenuity and initiative is possible. America is the nation that has brought most of the innovations that the world has benefitted from. The ability to achieve this height of prosperity, protect the world from despots (like Hitler), and be the most generous nation ever, is made possible by one document, our Constitution. This single document is the corner stone of freedom and liberty.

Sharia Law is to Islam what our Constitution to America. Sharia Law is a collection of edicts hanging on to a 7th century mentality of “might makes right” that denies individual freedom, denies liberty, and imposes draconian punishment that does not fit the (supposed) crime. If America was founded on Sharia Law it would be a totally different country. We would be ruled by uneducated men that would have stifled any and all scientific and social progress. Most of the citizens would be pore, many enslaved, and under yoke of oppression. Since Sharia Law does not allow individual thought especially questioning any aspect of Islam, most of us would be living as serfs. Since Islam puts women in the category of beasts of burden without the right for a formal education there would be no women doctors. Without women doctors women would not be afforded medical attention since an unrelated man can not touch or even look at a woman. How many families can say they have a doctor in the family?

It is the goal of Islam to rule the world under a World Caliphate. Practicing Muslims in America want Sharia Law to replace our Constitution. Replacing our Constitution with Sharia Law will be a disaster not only for America but for the whole world. Instead of more text books about Islam, our schools should be concentrating on teaching the virtues of living in a land of liberty and individual freedom. A land where the heights one can reach are dependent on one’s ability, determination, and willingness to work hard; not by circumstances of birth or the whims of self proclaimed messengers of God.
