"...But if we were we to live under Sharia Law, here's what we could expect: government policy would be based on religious doctrine; when science and religious doctrine conflict, we would follow religious doctrine; religion would be taught and promoted in public schools; only abstinence would be acceptable sex education; homosexuality and gay marriage would be illegal; women would have fewer rights than men; abortion would be illegal; and there would be no separation of church and state
But wait! Isn't this what Christian extremists and many Republican candidates are now promoting? As an atheist, I'm almost inspired to say, "Thank God we live in a secular country."
