Re: Understanding Sharia
just as an aside, i really wish we had some muslims on this board posting in politics (if in fact we don't?)
my very good friend and roomate happens to be muslim, and i'd say he's my most religious friend at school, and of course he's a completely "normal" guy. There are certainly as many crazy christians or jews as muslims. Just that some people we don't like happen to be muslims, and use islam as a justification for action doesn't mean much.
wacky christians /= christians having no value
wacky muslims /= muslims having no value
however people = people
that doesn't mean we can't have different desires and goals, as do many americans, engineers, jews, young and old. People have ideas about what life means and what makes it worth living, and without fail these ideas don't line up neatly along any group lines, regardless of certain preponderances.
