Why are you still awake, come to bed sweety!

Just wondering. I can't imagine the Union dissolving; the prospect makes me sad. If you don't mind me prying, are your reasons based on economics or nationalism?
-
How will you be voting, regarding independence for Scotland, come 2014?

Let me ask you, when was that moment of "enlightenment" for Europe? Was it the reniessance or was it another period? If so what was the reneissance which all Historians consider the turning point for Europe.
I only made the statement that the laws, civil/common had Islamic origins, which anyone that looks at history would see the clear link within. Anyone that rejects it is in denial.
Even the Architecture lol, when the Crusaders left the ME, they started building based on what they saw in Muslim lands.

I'd imagine it did. We already know the civil/common law had some influence from origins in Islamic Shariah.
When the British colonized the likes of India etc. They pretty much retracted many of the rights of women that Islam had given them.
Noah Feldman, a Harvard University law professor, has noted: As for sexism, the common law long denied married women any property rights or indeed legal personality apart from their husbands. When the British applied their law to Muslims in place of shariah, as they did in some colonies, the result was to strip married women of the property that Islamic law had always granted them – hardly progress toward equality of the sexes. [201]
I'd find it hard to believe that a system that for over 1350 years gave women more rights then any other would not have influenced other systems in taking similar persuit.
This is however not to discredit the women's movement after WW1-2 which slowly began to earn them rights that could eventually challenge the Islamic Shariah.

No, why would I close my own thread. Some idiots derailed it and the mods probably closed it.

Nothing wrong with a bit of criticism, but you think you have the right to just laugh at (and look down on) anyone with different views than yourself, that's really quite self-righteous. And I didn't take offence to your Wicca comment, to be frank I had no idea what you were on about!
