Quote:It's not a religious law.  In fact it's not even a law.  They're convening a number of financial institutions to try to figure out a way to offer loans that would appeal to the sharia community.  That's really all they're doing.  


Also the great thing about America is that all customs are welcome here.  Or at least that used to be the case.  


And you might not care either way, but many who are up in arms about this would very much be applauding a community appealing to their religious beliefs.

The article called it a religious law, not me. 

 

And you're right about the third point. I guess it's just a little hypocritical to me when people make the effort to appeal to one religious group while another one is practically demonized and sued for wanting to adhere their sincerely held religious beliefs. I understand the circumstances are not the same but I still find it hypocritical. If those businesses lose customers as a result of their beliefs then so be it. I would rather lose my business because I lived by my belief system the same way as these Muslims would rather never own a home if it meant they lived by theirs.
