Subject: RE: BS: School Gym forced to shut by Muslims UK
"I am lead to believe that Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday ( I don`t know which Wednesday) to get out of Australia...."

'Nup, not so. Australia has it's share of bigots but nothing like this has been said in recent times'

Freda, it is those who would impose their fundamental Islamic and Sharia laws on a liberal and democratic society that are guilty of bigotry. Intolerance, in any form is objectionable; but do we tolerate the intolerant? There is a movement afoot which is pushing fundamental Islamic values which are simply not compatible with our society, our laws and social norms. We really need to ask ourselves, is this acceptable? I don't think it is and I believe, at least in the UK, that we are in for major problems with this if it is not resisted. And by we, I also include moderate Muslims who themselves, would choose a liberal democratic society over Sharia Law. I feel it their voice that is not being heard- it must grow louder.
