Sharia law - Should It Be Introduced Into UK Law?

cuddlyewok · Sharia law - Should It Be Introduced Into UK Law?

The big debate circulating at the moment, is to whether certain parts of Sharia Law should be introduced into the UK law system. Some Muslims are actually against this idea, whilst others are for it, as well as difference between other religions.

This was brought up, by The Archbishop of Canterbury.

Your thoughts please, on whether you think it would be a good thing to introduce it, or a bad thing. Whichever choice you make, could you please give your reasons.

For myself, I think it is a bad thing.
All muslims, Jews, Christians, Mormons, etc who live in the UK should stick to the British Law system, irrelevant of what religion, or whether you were born here, or moved to here from another country.

In one breath, we are getting told that all religions and ethnic backgrounds should intergrate more with each other, to prevent what we are already seeing in parts of the country at this very moment, which is segregation.
Yet, by wanting to bring in one religions law, whether whole or part, into the British law system, you are in fact, creating more segregation, as you are singling out one particular religion.

To sum up, we all live in the UK, and therefore should all be dealt with, under the UK law.

I'm perfectly ok with some laws, like eating Kosher, but not this.
Britain isn't Britain any more.
