A measure just recently passed requiring that the U.S. Constitution and the state constitution are applied in courtrooms, forbidding recognition of any foreign laws and foreign cultures. It now moves on to the governor’s desk to be signed.Family law is particularly vulnerable to challenges from pro-Sharia interests, and this legislation is effective in eliminating that weakness in our judicial system.Other states, including Arizona, Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Tennessee have taken similar steps in the same effort. The Oklahoma law was ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge who felt it discriminated against a specific religion, because it specifically referenced Islamic law.The broad language of the North Carolina legislation applies to any foreign laws, thereby avoiding the discrimination argument.Sharia law permits girls of any age, specifically children to marry, and while rape is acceptable conduct by males, adultery or prostitution by females can carry a death sentence.The Council on American-Islamic Relations naturally came out against the bill, as their objective is the conversion of the United States into an Islamic country.Deseret News reports that CAIR sent out an “action alert” urging Muslims to pressure the governor to veto the bill. They labeled the “foreign law” bill as an attack on the state’s Muslim population, denying them their equal access to the courts enjoyed by other religious groups.Of course that is untrue; it merely requires that the same courts be applied equally to all, the opposite of the claims of CAIR.In their statement they state, “We support religious liberty.  We don’t want to see individuals punished for following their consciences and acting according to sincere religious belief (see our commentary on the Hobby Lobby case).  We do have to be careful about this kind of legislation, because while honor-killings and domestic violence aren’t legitimate forms of religious expression, Sharia-compliant banking and other contract-related aspects of Islamic law are and should be practical ways of expressing religious faith free from government interference, and they might be harmed by this kind of law.  It’s never a good idea to undermine religious liberty.Unless, of course, it’s Christian religious liberty, then it’s a fabulous idea. And if they want Sharia banking and contracts, there are a lot of countries around the world where those are the standard practice. They all have airports.Rick Wells is a conservative author who believes an adherence the U.S. Constitution would solve many of today’s problems. “Like” him on Facebook and “Follow” him on Twitter.(conservativeinfidel.com)ANN.Az
