What is your feeling about Sharia law in the UK?:

What if: If the UK had a referendum system like the Swiss of direct democracy... with referendums that could overturn Parliment decisions... I wonder how the Brits would vote on such a decision as the Swiss did. Any opinions?

And just wondering: your view on the article posted above? (the one by the women's rights activist)

Religous Laws has no place in Western Democracies, as I have already stated the UK Muslim population is very small, and the vast majority are westernised.

As for a vote, the British people do not agree with mass immigration nor do they wish for their culture to be swamped, however we are tolerant of the religion and beliefs of others providing that is that they respect our freedoms, religion and culture.

We are now entering an age of scientific advancement beyond anything seen in the past, by the end of the century we could be colonising other planets and could have made scientific breakthroughs far beyond our current expectations. We should not let petty religous beliefs which are more akin to the middle ages hold humanity back.
