Alabama is a beautiful state with a population that is largely rooted in common sense and patriotism, “clinging bitterly” to their traditional American values. That might be seen as a negative in some areas of the country, particularly in the Northeast, DC, or West Coast liberal cesspools, but in Alabama, it’s a source of pride. They still understand what it means to be an American, what representative government is and they reject the socialism, the political correctness and nanny state that many of the “enlightened” among us have chosen to embrace.
In the elections of Tuesday, in which the Republican victories issued a cease and desist order to the socialist fundamental transformation, the people of Alabama also stood up for the sanctity of America’s judicial system and against the trend to internationalize or subdivide our laws based upon the views of those subject to them.
The citizens of Alabama spoke by passing a constitutional amendment which prohibits the use of any foreign laws in state courts. The amendment was sponsored by Republican state Sen. Gerald Allen, a Baptist deacon.

All they did waste money, time, and paper. The supreme court will shoot that down so fast their heads will spin just as soon as someone complains about it.

Well this must have been important or it wouldn't have made it to ballot.
Alabama voters have said yes to a State Constitutional Amendment that addresses "Sharia" law apparently.
Don't know any details.
Must the old "Alabamee Whamee"

It Must Be the RED Wave !!
Will this be the start of the
Christian Theocracy Movement?
Did you know that in the Madison/Huntsville area of Alabama 34% of the residents hold a master's degree or PhD?
Just to inform you that Alabama is not as backward as you are trying to make it out to be.
What you were spouting is a myth about the state of Alabama, one that will be shot to h--- if you'd visit for yourself.

Maybe they were smart enough to look overseas and see Sharia Laws inroads. The lefties are always citing Europe as some grand eutopia(purposely spelled this) just look at their arguments for health care where they say we should be more like them.

You have never been to or lived in Alabama.
Did you know that in the Madison/Huntsville area of Alabama 34% of the residents hold a master's degree or PhD?
Also, more than 50% of the residents have a bachelor's degree or higher?
That there are 20,000 engineers in the Madison/Huntsville area?
And in case you think that they are small towns, there are 683,871 residents in the metro area of Huntsville, AL.

In short, the First and Fourteenth Amendments permit hierarchical religious organizations to establish their own rules and regulations for internal discipline and government, and to create tribunals for adjudicating disputes over these matters. When this choice is exercised and ecclesiastical tribunals are created to decide disputes over the government and direction of subordinate bodies, the Constitution requires that civil courts accept their decisions as binding upon them.Franzen v. Poulos
