Sharia comments trigger criticism
"The Archbishop of Canterbury has come under fire after appearing to back the adoption of some aspects of Sharia law in the UK".
I was surprised upon hearing the Archbishop of Canturbury's interview, on Radio 4's The World At One, at how quiet and reasonable he sounded as he made his points. Compared to the loud noises made in the MSM and the blogosphere in response.
Dr Rowan Williams might be misguided in the points he makes. But, I did not hear him suggest that English law should be replaced with Islamic Sharia law. Rather he was suggesting that it could be tweaked to better accommodate Muslims.
Sharia law and the British legal system
"The Archbishop of Canterbury's desire to bring some aspects of Sharia law into the mainstream legal system is bound to prove controversial".
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
