Your username explains everything. All people of the book understand that liberal democracy is a load of tosh which enables people to commit sin.
Well I'm glad that we have fewer and fewer "people of the book" here. That is so 7th century, we live in the time of robots and smart phones and internet. Also most sins are alot of fun. (drinking, f*cking, dancing, swearing etc.) and people are happier if they can commit them. You know happiness plays a big role in how you should set up your society in my opinion. Since we don't force people to believe in God/Allah/jehovah/Buddha/Thor/Zeus/FSM (MSBUH) you can't really make it a law to follow their specific "no no rules". That is what religious freedom is all about. Each his own but no compulsion and no infriging on other peoples freedoms.
Democracy to you is not democracy to me, the literal meaning of 'democracy is generally defined as a form of government in which all the people have an equal say in the decisions that affect their lives'.
meh.. When people in the 21st century talk about democracy it is almost always used in the sense of liberal democracy.. so yeah but no.. the definition has evolved quit a bit, but the reactionary forces in muslim societies of course think that everything developed after the 7th century is devilish. But I guess that is a moot point if you just "choose" to pick a different (if outdated) meaning.
You think you live in a democratic society?? You couldn't be more wrong, that narrative is better placed against Sharia Law. You're capitalist structure is robbing the poor and clothing the rich, the gap is greater than ever. The rich elite end up with everything, it is a members only club where people like you and I are not allowed.
Okay hold on a second, now we are mixing things up aren't we? There is an argument to be had about income and wealth distribution, but given your previous comments I am not sure you are really qualified to make these assumptions. You are mixing political and economic setup.
Btw. in countries with Sharia Income distribution is more unequal than in most European countries:

Except for the USA (which is kinda an olligarchy by now) all western nations have a more equal income distribution than Muslim countries.
You're far right masters will teach of these so-called 'theocratic systems' that take away your liberties but I will tell you the most free people are those who are free of these mis-conceptions.
This one made me laugh hard. What far right are you talking about? Even the German conservative party is to the left of the US democrats and most western European countries are very left leaning (which isn't a bad thing necesarrily) There are no "far right" masters at least in my country. If theocracy is so awesome, why don't you live in Saudi Arabia or Iran?
Also where do you think the ruling party in Pakistan is on the political spectrum?
You talk about a MAJORITY - huh let's talk about majorities. The west has a so-called democracy right, when millions of people took to the streets to make the Governments stop the illegal invasion of Iraq, where was democracy? It's all about the $$$ not democracy.
You are mixing things again. Also, when millions went on the street in Germany, we stayed out of Iraq. UK politicians just suck more than ours. doesn't mean democracy doesn't work.
The UK doesn't have a majority government, it's a coalition which no one voted for. The senior party in the coalition had 36% of the vote.
Well fair enough. Coalitions are pretty helpful for pluralistic consensus though.
Stop telling people to go back to where they came from then. If you're so-called democratic countries hadn't robbed Africa dry then maybe you could go back there
Are you deliberately twisting my words here? That is 100% the opposite of what I said.
You asked me where people come from who own this land now. And all humans originally come from Africa, that is where homo sapiens evolved. I wasn't saying anybody should go back there, just that the fact that we 100.000 years ago all came from that continent is irelevant to the topic.
All Pakistanis were Indians 100 years ago, does that mean Indians don't have to follow the law in Pakistan? Obviously not.
Take the time and actually read carefully before you respond please, otherwise this is a waste of everyones time.
