If the majority of the voters want to live under Sharia law, the minority suffers.

Of course, which is why there must be a respect for a rule of law based upon a human Bill of Rights similar to ours, however imperfectly we adher to them at times.

Basing a government upon a religion, minus the good lord coming back and setting up his kingdom in a manner that no one could assert was human-derived, is ridiculous. There are just too many "flavors" of any particular religion. And no particular flavor has the right to demand that others adher to their interpretation related to a spiritual belief.

If these people want to reveal their faith in god and what god is supposed to mean to humanity, they should never use violence to accomplish it.
