[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Sadly, we have to send drones over there to take out Muslim extremist thugs. It's not our fault they like to take over villages and use human shields. It's that part of jihad? Seems like it's their MO.

And again, that shit doesn't affect Sally and her family in Oklahoma.

Feel me, Sista?[/quote]

Yet, Sally and a majority of her fellow Oklahoma residents passed a state constitutional amendment that forbade its courts from considering Islamic law in judicial decisions. That amendment was ruled unconstitutional. So, "that shit" is affecting Sally -- at least on the [b]paranoid psychotic [/b]level. Do you feel that?

It's "paranoid psychotic" to not want religious rules to affect the courts in this secular country of ours? Curious why it was ruled unconstitutional, because I'm not feeling that at all.

Betting you think that people who want to outlaw abortion on religious grounds (and I'm most definitely not one of them) is psychotic too. But wait, those are Christians, so it's totally different, right? [/quote]

Uh, the lw wasn't just written to prevent the use of  "religious rules".  It was written to prevent the use of rules from one religion and one religion only.  Therefore it was struck down because it would put one religion below the others, and that would violate the Establishment Clause.

In order to get what they want, they would have to say that no religious laws of any sort would be used in a court of law.  But that would include Christianity, and we all know that Christianity gets cited all the time in courts.  But hey, if Oklahoma wants to go that way, they should.  It will be tough to get all the judges to stop referring to Moses and the Ten Commandments and our "heritage" so they don't trigger mistrials.[/quote]
