This is completly exaggerated.
I've met the Arch Bishop and he's not an idiot. He is not reffering to laws like decapitation or stoning...etc, he's reffering to respect for religious laws AS WELL AS our countries laws. Ie, Jewish/Muslim marriages, food laws...etc "He said adopting parts of Islamic Sharia law could help social cohesion. For example, Muslims could choose to have marital disputes or financial matters dealt with in a Sharia court."

It's about understanding that we are now a mulit-racial and religious society and bringing not only British, Christian values into account, but also having enough respect for others laws that we can make some comprimise.

'Ibrahim Mogra, of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: "We're looking at a very small aspect of Sharia for Muslim families when they choose to be governed with regards to their marriage, divorce, inheritance, custody of children and so forth.

"Let's debate this issue. It is very complex. It is not as straight forward as saying that we will have a system here." '

Yes, that sounds like decaptitation for infidelity does it?

Read the article fully before making ridiculas claims people!
