The problem with the Bishop is, previously he had some sane things to say, apparently now he has lost his mind. He says Hudud is okay. Malaysia's recent dust-up involving the theoretical non-implementation of hudud, or Shariah laws that govern apostasy, theft, consumption of alcohol, et cetera in this country has been nothing if not educational. Muslims, even the 'moderate' ones who are supposedly in abundance in this country, tell everyone that they as Muslims must support such laws. The Bishop has no understanding of Dhimmitude.

Dr Paul, also the titular head of Catholics in the Melaka Johor diocese said “I say it's time to allow Muslims in Kelantan, if they so desire, to implement shariah only for them and with that the hudud enactments provided non-Muslims are exempt from its implementation,” online news portal Malaysiakini. Even as it is now, Shariah laws are indirectly applied on Non Muslims. Look at the body snatching cases, one of the many. Forced conversion of minors, another one of the many. List of injustices inflicted on the minority, it can only get worst.

Catholic Bishop Dr Paul Tan Chee Ing has no inkling about Hudud, he should look at the 57 OIC countries, where their minorities are periodically savaged. Here is some "Muslim Persecution of Christians" surprisingly in where they are a minority. Bishop Paul should visit Faith Freedom International, a site blocked in Malaysia run by ex Muslims. They will be the best ones to explain about Hudud and how it affects the Non Muslims. Yes, you can access that blocked site by using Ultra Surf, a step by step instruction on how to overcome censorship. The Catholic Bishop has to wake up and stop spewing forth his politically correct platitudes, diminishing the real threat of Hudud on the minorities.

This archbishop is, at best, incredibly naive, as anyone who does a couple of minutes' worth of honest research on Shariah can readily attest to. Hudud, and by extension the rest of Shariah, are long proven to be never exclusively for Muslims, but for absolutely everyone, whether they like it or not. The present-day paucity of Christians in their ancestral homelands of the Middle East should make unmistakably clear. So perhaps someone should inform the good archbishop that when infidels and useful idiots like himself schlep for Shariah, it's like brushing one's teeth with a loaded gun. It may not cause immediate harm, but in the medium to long term, it means certain extinction. Jihad Watch

There could be more raids on churches, services and Masses interrupted or canceled, and for Catholics, the Blessed Sacrament and Holy Sacrifice of the Mass itself would go forward under a perpetual sword of Damocles, with the possibility of zealous Sharia enforcers cutting the thread at any time.

We have already seen a raid on a church, so the precedent exists. If there is not sufficient strength in numbers to fight Sharia, non-Muslims' only hope is to plead for exemption, probably that is what the Bishop is thinking, well appeasement does not actually save one. It makes you into a slave. So be careful of what you wish for. Here is one Muslim who argues against Hudud. Bravo, I say to him. Here is a simple argument:

Example 1:

A Muslim and non Muslim happen to be partners in crime of a highway robbery. How would the courts prosecute and convict the accused? Will the non Muslim be tried in the 'secular' courts of Kelantan where he is most likely to be handed a lighter sentence as opposed to the Muslim, who if convicted will be facing death (by crucifixion) or amputation?

Example 2:

A non Muslim is a victim of rape and the alleged attacker is a Muslim. The infidel will then have to produce 4 male Muslims to provide testimony that s(he) was indeed raped. Let's say, the victim is unable to do so. How then will the case proceed? As the victim has already been entangled with the hudud legal system, s(he) will be accused.

So what were the 4 witnesses doing? Getting their rocks off? More here : Malaysian Muslim party: 'Hudud law is nothing for you infidels to worry about'.
