Or, more exactly, ...Shari'a might be a problem. Or, more exactly, the fact that those who want to impose it on their fellow citizens derive the authority to do so from the Quran.<br />Basically the same process through which the Inquisition had been imposed over the Catholic Europe...<br />An even bigger problem is how individual people choose to act inside the space defined by shari'a.<br />Time will tell. <br />I'm under the impression that the House of Saoud had brought Damocles' sword over their own head. They had encouraged radical Islamism as a means to get and preserve secular power and have now reached a cul-de-sack.<br />More and more of their subjects would like to live under a reasonable form of Islam but the Imams won't budge - simply because they don't want to loose their power...<br />Not very unlikely to what was going on in France, before the Revolution.<br />https://nicichiarasa.wordpress.com/2014/10/20/religion-is-an-environment-not-a-yoke/<br />Sarchis Dolmanianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13726373323305440562noreply@blogger.com
