Sharia law makes more inroads...

Let's see if this goes into affect.
A draft law proposed by lawmakers on the tsunami-ravaged Indonesian province of Aceh will impose Shariah, or Islamic law, on all non-Muslims, the military and police, a local law enforcement official said Thursday.

Until now, it has only applied to Muslims.

Sharia took effect in Aceh, a predominantly Muslim region on the northernmost tip of Sumatra island, last year. It banned drinking, gambling, adultery and other behavior deemed immoral under Islam.

The latest bill, submitted to the national parliament early this year for debate, is expected to be adopted by the 550-seat house by the summer after facing initial resistance.

I continue to ask, "Why shouldn't a gay man's default attitude toward Islam be Islamophobia?" There's not one single thing that Islam brings to the world that any gay or lesbian person should be anything but alarmed about.

The same goes for Christianity or any other religion.

Trevor:
I agree, Tommy Douglas should have stayed out of the political arena with his Universal health care plan for canada.
I shouldn't be force to pay for the idiots that smoke,drink,and get hurt in dangerous sports.
Plus since I made the effort to have a fairly clean life,why am I expected to let the Government take my organs to keep a drug abuser or alcoholic alive afetr they burned out their organs.

I don't even want CPP , let me save for my own retirement and stop taxing me so much. I'm paying for two school systems and I don't have children , the parents bitching and whining about more money for schools should ante-up and pay the REAL cost of education.
Schools,hospitals,and other social
values were foisted on us by Christians, so let them pay for it and leave people like you and i alone.
