Do you believe that Sharia Law is compatible with our Constitution?

I want to know whether anyone believes that Islam in America demanding Sharia Law will work in America with our Constitution and Bill of Rights. With the growing Muslim population (both legally and illegally) and all of the special treatment they get regarding their religion as compared to any other in America are you worried about whether our Constitution will survive?

Islamic Society of Orange County Town Hall, Sharia and the Constitution - Waters
On February 19, 2012 a public townhall meeting took place at the Islamic Society of Orange County, California. Present were several dignitaries. Here are the...

I guess this is why America is a great place to live, because everyone is entitled to an opinion?

The same thing is happening in Tennessee, but the citizens here rose to the challenge. The TN Attorney General said any speech against Islam could be classified as hate speech and that the violators would be prosecuted. Christianity is attacked daily, and they have a radical Imam in Nashville spouting jihad and the killing of non Muslims in America for years, and no action has been taken against him.

PO1 Steven Kuhn That is crazy. How is it that people can publicly call on the murder of others because of beliefs? I guarantee that if a Christian leader stepped out on the curb and started calling for the execution of non-Christians in America, that leader would be in jail.

CMSgt James Nolan none the less, it is (sadly) true! A city in middle Tennessee asked him about it and he had no reply. They boo'd (spelling?) Him out of the town hall meeting. And there are 22 (actually 30) Muslim Terrorist training camps that our government has KNOW about for 2 plus years run by a radical Muslim responsible for attacks on Americans under the protection of our government, funded by your tax dollars, living large with his slaves and harem in NE US of A! Feel better yet? Oil rich nations have money. Politicians have greed. Do the math!

No, sharia law is not compatible with the constitution. If someone wants sharia law they should go live where sharia law is the law and not push it on us. Go to Saudia Arabia, go to Samalia, and be happy. Don't go away mad, just go away! Sharia law has not place here in the USA.

It cannot be.
The courts system in Sharia is completely different--there are no lawyers (bad thing?) plaintiffs and defendants represent themselves, there are no juries--only a judge who's word is final and is not based on codified statute--only that judge's understanding of the issue and Islamic teaching at that time--precedents aren't binding even on the judge who made the ruling. There is no discover, no cross-examination, no perjury. Oral evidence has a higher priority than written or documentary evidence and eyewitness testimony over forensic evidence. It takes the testimony of four or more women to counter the testimony of one man. Those employed as servants or who are slaves may not testify at all against someone of a higher station.

There are religious scholars who interpret Sharia Law and apply it to each unique situation.

My answer is not unique to Sharia Law. I don't believe that any law based solely on religious grounds is compatible with the Constitution or the basic principles of this country.
And honestly I don't know what all the fuss is about. Does anyone seriously expect to see the US operating under Sharia law in our lifetimes? Personally, I'm more concerned with the prospect of being subjected to laws based on Christianity.

SFC (Join to see) first off, our country was based on Christian principles by men of Christian faith (as can be proven by reviewing the bibliography of our Founding Fathers) as can be seen by the reference to God in our Declaration of Independence and Constition. Also, our law was and is based on the 10 Commandments. Ever wonder why we swear on a BIBLE to tell the truth? All the clues are there there if you just keep an open mind and have a strong desire to seek the truth!

Our country was founded on principles of freedom, including freedom of religion. The Founding Fathers even thought to include that as part of the Bill of Rights. And the early American government even signed the Treaty of Tripoli. Here is an excerpt:
"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion"
And in what way are our laws founded on the 10 Commandments? Do I go to jail if I take the Lord's name in vain? Am I bound by law to honor my parents? Or are you referring to things like thou shalt not kill, which isn't really unique to the 10 Commandments. Murder tends to be frowned upon in pretty much every society.

First off, nice name!
Second off: It has nothing to do with belief, like oil and water.
