Fire me up

 
Two men have raised my blood pressure this week.  One is Rowan Williams, the ArchBish of Canterbury who appears to think that it's okay for British Muslim women and children to be subjected, in this country,  to Sharia family law on divorce and custody.  Apart from the way that Sharia subjugates women Williams doesn't seem to take account of the iniquities and inequities of running two very different legal systems in one country.  Furthermore, given the large proportion of British Muslims who think that fundamentalist Islamic terrorists have good cause for their violence, it appears to have escaped him that once Sharia has a foothold inside the British jurisprudence system they'll not stop at family law.  If religious groups are allowed to opt out of British justice, then what argument could possibly hold sway against wholesale Sharia come the day that a whole region becomes predominantly Muslim?  I know it's over-egging it, but he's pointing the way to future stonings of raped women in Oldham.
 
This man is supposedly the spiritual leader of the Anglican church, the established religion of this country - he's not the spiritual leader of Islam, and nor is he supposed to campaign for Sharia. 
 
The other man to stir me up a tad has been DCI Gene Hunt. 
I know he's a crude and totally unreconstructed chauvinist but really, you would, wouldn't you? 
Fire up the Quattro? Oh yes please Gene.

See that the archbish is trying to backtrack as quick as a politician...What a plank he seems to be, no offence to any C of E readers or yourself...Wonder what our Moderator of the Kirk thinks, i seriously doubt she is for any kind of sharia law being female...I didn't watch Life on Mars as such but i watched Ashes to Ashes on sunday...So wish i had watched Life on Mars now because yes i defo would <g>

You should do what they have done in Australia:  "Either assimilate, or get out!!"
