4 thoughts on “German Ex-Policeman Fights Against Sharia Law in Germany”

1. “Because Sharia law in Germany cannot and should not stand above the criminal code, and even above constitutional law.”

   Mr Kellner’s attempts to uphold Germany’s legal and constitutional codes is a noble one and has backing from the Church of England’s Archbishop of Canterbury no less.

   In a forthcoming book, Archbishop Justin Welby writes,

   “Islamic rules are incompatible with Britain’s laws, which have developed over 500 years on the principles of a different culture.” … and that British law had “values and assumptions rooted in Christian tradition…and that Sharia law “cannot become part of another narrative”.

   He added that high levels of immigration from Muslim countries can “have an impact on the accepted pattern for choosing a partner, on assumed ages of maturity and sexual activity, and especially on issues of polygamy. Accepting it in part implies accepting its values around the nature of the human person, attitudes to outsiders, the revelation of God, and a basis for life in law, rather than grace, the formative word of Christian culture.”

   I wish Mr Kellner every success, my thoughts and prayers are with him.

   • I like Cranmer’s blog a lot.

     And whoa! This new guy in the chair at Canterbury is a breath of fresh air.

     That Daily Mail report says:

     Archbishop Welby’s comments follow the release earlier this month of a highly critical Home Office report that said all couples marrying in mosques should also have to go through a legally-binding civil marriage ceremony to shield wives from injustices under sharia.

     I wonder if he and ol’ Prince Charley will go at it?

     Here’s his Amazon UK link to his book, Reimagining Britain: Foundations for Hope

     A few reviews/blurbs of the book on the UK site:

     “This is a book bristling with energy and ideas. Written against a wide canvas of historical narrative and critique, it is a fast-moving appeal for the fashioning of deeper virtue, expressed in action, in the form of a shared narrative of our identity and purpose.” – Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster

     “Justin Welby’s voice is powerful and distinctive. He writes with verve and insight. Reimagining Britain is a work of supreme timeliness.” – Lord Hennessy of Nympsfield

     “This courageous and perceptive call to mobilise for the common good of Britain comes at a crucial time. No other leader has offered such a powerful combination of realism, depth and practical priorities.” – David F. Ford OBE, Regius Professor of Divinity, University of Cambridge

     “Timely, wise, humane, positive – just what is needed to focus the national debate on shared values and creating a better future, particularly for the half of the country left behind by ‘modernisation’ and ‘globalisation.’” – Lord Adonis

     ——————————

     Cranmer has some compare-and-contrast analysis:

     Yet the story [of Welby’s turn-away from Rowan Whatsis] has been headlined in just two newspapers: the Daily Mail and the Express, and is deemed worthy of a footnote in the Times. Everyone else has ignored it, despite it coinciding with the Government’s more robust approach against the rise of sharia councils (/courts).

     Rowan Williams was roundly and (almost) universally denounced for saying that Sharia Law in the UK was “inevitable” or “unavoidable”, so why isn’t Justin Welby being commended for saying that it is by no means inevitable and must be avoided at all costs? Why isn’t he applauded for defending the British Christian tradition of jurisprudence? Why isn’t he appreciated for baldly stating that sharia brooks no rivals, and that accepting it even in part “implies accepting its values around the nature of the human person, attitudes to outsiders, the revelation of God, and a basis for life in law, rather than grace, the formative word of Christian culture”?

     Good point. Maybe the Queen, as Defender of the Faith, ought to speak out? Fat chance.

     Thank you for this information. Quite timely and important. Makes me realize again that having a written Constitution is a bulwark against the illerati.

2. The Archbishop speaks of English jurisprudence from a “background….from which British law has developed over the past 500 years”.

   It is worth observing that written English law is well over 1400 years old. English law has a WRITTEN text, the Laws of Ethelbert, dating back to circa 600 preserved in the Textus Roffensis. The laws were set down in WRITING in English (Anglo-Saxon) some twenty years BEFORE the Mohammedan calendar even started, in 622, when illiterate Arabs were propagating their texts through oral transmission, by learning and recitation.

3. I watch fresh videos from Germany on Youtube and see how people go crowd in protest. First one way they go, then they go the other way. They need to stop going to work in the same way.
   May the beloved migrants, Mrs. Merkel, work.
