Originally posted by séamuis you think that was witty? you don't speak the truth, you speak ignorance and nonsense, about things you have so little true idea about.
truth is this offends me:
Slaughter in Syria
Muslims being slaughtered by Muslims.....
Do you see how having no separation between church and state makes it very hard for others (infidels such as myself) to not separate the actions of the Islamic states from Islam? That is the truth.
compare that to how we in Canada deal with a major crisis:
Quebec protest
doesn't matter if you're Catholic, Protestant, Christian, Muslim or atheist... here in Canada people can protest the government, even get arrested.. and neither the civilians nor the police nor the government decides to go on a mass killing spree... we have differing opinions but don't go on massive killing sprees to win debates.
There are TWO reasons for that...
1)This is a democracy...
2)There is no version of Sharia law being applied here.
So maybe I am not as ignorant as you think I am.. I know this system, flaws and all is better than Syria's, and Syria's largely reflects the sharia law..

yet Syria and Quebec BOTH started out with a lot of French styled laws and courts... so why did they both end up being so different?
Separation of church and state.
