That's the nice thing about the flames of resurrection. They'd cure that too!

Why do you care so much, when it's voluntary anyway and doesn't even concern you? |

Sure it is. If Islamists start claiming jurisdiction over criminal matters, then I'm right. |

Well, it's not provable over the long term.

Re: 'We want to offer sharia law to Britain'
I think some people may be reading to much into this. There is nothing radical being proposed here. The sharia courts will, I imagine be very similar to the Beth Din courts the Jews hold in North London. They will only cover civil matters, such as marriages, divorces and perhaps contractual disputes between tenants and landlords.
Under English law, people may devise their own way to settle a dispute before an agreed third party. So this is already a recognised method of dispute settlement under English law.
Some peeps are carrying on like, Muslims are suddenly going to take over power and start lopping off heads and limbs. This is ridiculous. Participation in the sharia court will be left to the discretion of the parties in a case. No one is under any obligation to have their case heard in a Muslim sharia court or in the Jewish Beth Din.
