Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
Yea um Somalia was far from a religous state during when there was a government..Some would call it a secular/marxist society. Women were free too wear anything they please...Tourists coming to the beaches in bikni's lol ummm nothing like today.

Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
We never were marxist, and the socialism was to get USSR support, we never followed their ideology but I don't disagree with the rest of the stuff. But many "administrative laws" were really Islamic laws because those were OUR laws. For example, laws concerning marriage? What was in administrative law was Islamic law because of that it was never a secular state. Islam was even our official religion, a secular state does not have anything to do with religion. That is what I mean not that Somalia was an "Islamic state" in the sense we are looking at today.
Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
What's the relevance of what you call "I-never-read-or-studied-or-did-research-but-basing-it-of-off-what-illiterate-people-changed-it-to"? I have pointed out where you're mistaken, and there's no need to get emotional. You're also mistaken about those "administrative laws." Most if not all were based on English/French common laws. In short, it were based on secularism.Voltage wrote:Have you studied that law or you are going by what I call the "I-never-read-or-studied-or-did-research-but-basing-it-of-off-what-illiterate-people-changed-it-to" syndrome?

AR1223,
Don't mind Voltage. He gets emotional when presented any facts that challenge his notion of MSB.
You are correct that MSB was a secularist. He was the Somali leader to slaughtered innocent wadaads who criticized his warped "scientific socialism" and secularist agenda.

AbdiWahab252, I see you agree that secularism is evil and cancererous. I hope you warn your very secularist uncle about it.AbdiWahab252 wrote:AR1223,

Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
BTW, this is a copy of Somalia's 1979 constitution:
http://www.chr.up.ac.za/centre_publicat ... p.1505.doc
It mentions the word "Islam" a single time (Article 3):
1. Islam shall be the state religion.
Check for yourself if it has the remotest resemblance to Islamic laws. I have found 1 qodob that contradicts Islamic laws:
Article 27:
2. Corporal punishment shall be prohibited.

Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
Your style of dismissing others sounds similar to colonel Xoogsade's; "I know more than you do", "I have studied more", "I was an eye witness at the incidence", "You weren't even born when it happened", etc. Once again, what's the relevance of what you call "what"? It isn't a least common phrase.Voltage wrote:Emotional? Red herring?

Re: Do you prefer a Secular Somalia?
I thought so. Do a little studying. In college they would call what you are doing "b.ullshitting".
You know, kinda like a student who hasn't read the text but thinks they can piece together something using wikipedia..?
