Comments on: Beginnings of Sharia Law? http://geezervilleusa.com/2007/01/08/beginnings-of-sharia-law/ Commentary Appropriate For Today's Changing World Tue, 07 Sep 2010 16:39:04 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: Guy http://geezervilleusa.com/2007/01/08/beginnings-of-sharia-law/#comment-34479 Thu, 18 Jan 2007 13:52:01 +0000 http://geezervilleusa.com/2007/01/08/beginnings-of-sharia-law/#comment-34479 Lisa, You are correct. We should respect other's beliefs. However, that is not the issue. The problem is that cab drivers are issued permits by the city and the airport authority. One of the requirements of that permit is that the drivers must serve all customers. Even those with dogs and liquor bottles. It's not an issue of disrespecting other's beliefs. It's a matter of obeying the tenants of a contract. If Muslim cab drivers don't want to service those people that they disagree with, they should find another source of employment. Should I be forced to rent my home to two homosexuals if I feel that what they are doing is immoral? Personally, I don't think that I should. However, whether I agree with this or not, I am required by law to rent to them. So, you see, it works both ways. Lisa,

It's their right and choice to not participate in the process of people getting drunk. People however should respect that instead of dissing. People who aren't muslims can do the same and you won't judge them this way. Sheesh some people has no respect for people's ideals.

I have no problem with immigrants being assimilated into our society. Afterall, that's how our nation has been built. However, like you, I insist that they be legal and make every attempt at speaking our language. Randy,

Time to send a message that if their religion restricts them from doing their job, get a new job. I don’t know why they become cab drivers if they can’t take certain fares.

Now if it were the other way around, for example, if customers of the taxis decided to shun the muslim cabbies, strictly because they were muslims then the ACLU and CAIR would be all over it claiming Islamaphobia! Instead, the veneer of "religious rights" is being used to manipulate our society and the likes of institutions like CAIR and ACLU will help support their goals. America needs to wake up to the movement that is taking place...because there are many types of jihad on America's homeland. Islam is just a political movement disguised and protected under the name of religion. It's goal is to dominate and make all non muslims bow down to Allah and it will continue until the people of America stop allowing it's bullying! It’s just another form of jihad!
