[QUOTE="BAHAHAHAHAHA"][QUOTE="Theokhoth"] Sharia Law is not God's Law according to all Muslims. :| So you're just assuming, applying generalizations to whole groups of people based on those assumptions, and all of this based on a false preconception of those people's beliefs. :lol:Theokhoth
Perhaps you should have done your homework beforehand? Sharia Law is a core concept of Islam and is considered by all Muslims to be the law of God as revealed in the Quran. They certainly differ over what exactly Sharia Law is, yes - and they certainly differ as to whether that law should be forced in as the official law of all countries, yes - but that Sharia Law is God's Law is universal. Shame on you. Don't make out that I'm the ignorant one here. If Sharia differs between Muslims, then why are you making it out that it's always bad and radical and an example of the evilness of Muslims? You know what country has Sharia Law? Indonesia. Where homosexuality is legal, among other things. Where there are more Muslims than anywhere else in the world. Where they have a Republic.itt picking one of the few countries with Sharia Law that aren't absolute hellholes for human rights. Anyway, in indonesia there are no laws against harrassment or discrimination against homosexuals, and any depiction of homosexuality is punishable by up to 7 years' imprsonment. And since it's late, I'm tired, and Indonesia is homophobic in more ways than I can be bothered to type out, have a courtesy wikipedia dump:In 2002, the Indonesian Government gave Aceh province the right to introduce Islamic sharia, albeit only to Muslim residents. For example, the city of Palembang introduced jail and fines, for homosexual sex.[4] Under the law homosexuality is defined as an act of 'prostitution that violates the norms of common decency, religion, and legal norms as they apply to societal rule'.[5] The following acts are defined as acts of prostitution homosexual sex, lesbians, sodomy, sexual harassment, and other pornographic acts.[6] Fifty two regions have since enacted sharia law from the Koran which criminalizes homosexuality.[7]In Jakarta lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgendered, and transsexual are legally labeled as cacat or mentally handicapped and are therefore not protected under the law.[8] This is the irony that LGBT people fall outside the law and are subject to it.[9] Indonesia allowed sexual relations between persons of the same sex in 1993.[10] Indonesia has higher age of consent provisions for same sex relations than for heterosexual relations (17 for heterosexuals and 18 for homosexual).[11]
Not so liberal after all?
