Did the Prospect of Shari’a Law in Kenya Contribute to the Recent Disorder?
A link to a .pdf document has come into my possession that might indicate a connection between the recent disorder in Kenya and plans to institute Shari’a law.
Read the document and witness the sort of demands that are being made. Following the Archbishop of Canterbury’s recent outrageous statement we can look at the contents of this document in the context of a future Great Britain. Below I highlight some quotes from the document followed by some of my own concerns about the future of Britain:
(1) ‘Coast Province shall…have full autonomy’ – If Shari’a law is allowed to take root in Britain, how long will it be before areas start demanding autonomy and thereby compromising the territorial integrity of the British state? What guarantee is there that this would not happen?
(2) ‘re-write the Constitution of Kenya to recognise Shariah as the only true law…for Muslim declared regions’ – In my view accepting elements of Shari’a law in Britain would eventually lead to demands such as these. After all, if one aspect of Shari’a is accepted on cultural grounds then why not all? Surely if one set of demands are met then others will inevitably follow. Shari’a is an alternative legal system not a supplementary one.
(3) ‘popularise Islam, the only true religion’ – Perhaps this is the role that Dr Williams sees himself performing in England.
(4) ‘total ban on open-air gospel crusades’ – What would be the status of non Muslims in Britain if Shari’a law gradually becomes the law of the land. Will restrictions be placed on the practice of other religions?
Shari’a law should not be allowed to take root in Britain. Britain should remain as a peaceful united country.
