Creeping Sharia law comes to the gridiron

Sharia law has now become entrenched in high school football in Dearborn, Michigan as it advances its occasionally noiseless creep over the landscape.

A Michigan high school team, believe it or not, is holding its football practices in the middle of the night to keep its players from committing offenses during Ramadan. The team practices from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m.

ESPN notes that the team is “predominantly Muslim,” which means of course that every non-Muslim on this squad is forced to yield to Sharia law whether he wants to or not. He is forced to accommodate his sleeping schedule to the dictates of Islam whether he believes in the Koran or not. Their lives are being governed by Sharia law, right here in the United States of America.

So much for religious liberty in Dearborn, Michigan, and so much for the separation of mosque and school and mosque and state. Such a separation does not exist in Islamic thought, and because the ACLU and others on the left hate America as much as Islam does, you will hear no peeps of protest from those who normally are hyper-vigilant about transgressions of their view of the First Amendment.

This illustrates another truth about Islam. It is not a religion so much as an entire, totalitarian ideology that is determined to control every aspect of life, right down to when you can practice football.

Let’s be clear here. Dearborn, Michigan has now become a Muslim enclave, a Sharia enclave encircled by sovereign U.S. soil. It will soon be impossible, if it’s not already, to recognize this community as a part of the United States of America.
