    Muslim Oath on the Koran
    I swear by Allah that the evidence I shall give shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

    Law trumps religion yet uses religion to meet its own ends

    Let them wear a veil as long as they are naked from the neck down. Everyone wins.

    That's why it's the law. Religion is subordinate to it ffs.

    You don't have to swear on the bible though. You can opt out.

    I personally think all religion should be banned and non whites forcibly removed from the country and deposited on various islands around the uk. Such as the Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Isles of Scilly etc. the sea should then be mined around said isles. I'd allow the nig nogs to stay as they're ok. As there'd be no staff in inner city McDonalds. No one to buy old bmw's.

    I also think that the entire population should be given an IQ test . All those people unable to write, operate a self service checkout, people who can't grasp packing their items at a till while stuff is being scanned. As opposed to waiting til they've paid. People with tv's bigger than their lounge Should all be rounded up an placed into ring fenced cities such as Doncaster and Barnsley.

    I'd swear on this then. It has a hole in it and when you wiggle your fingers it makes the crab dance. Beezer of a book.
