Seeing as how yr in this group, I think you should use it as a learning experience, not to try to make it a negative thing...
Everything in yr post is totally incorrect. Some countries have been mentioned in this thread that are the 'least bit' progressive.
And I'm sure it's been pointed out to you before, but Israel has Sharia courts. Here's an article about it for you to read and learn from
'Israeli family law is in the hands of the religious courts, and has been so since the creation of the country. Everyone has heard of the travesty that is the rabbinical court system, but few people realize that there is also a publicly-funded Sharia court system: some 19% of the population of Israel is Muslim, and naturally they are not expected to have rabbis marry and divorce them. There are eight Sharia courts in Israel: in Jerusalem, Jaffa, Haifa, Beer Sheva, Nazareth, Acre, Taybeh, and Baka Al Garabiya.
Why does Israel maintain such courts? Because family law is mostly out of the reach of the civil courts. You cant have a civil marriage in Israel. You cant even have a civil divorce, even assuming you were married elsewhere. Why not? Because in a civil court, the government will have to acknowledge miscegenation, marriages between Jews and non-Jews. Most Jew are opposed to that, sometimes violently the 50 rabbis who yesterday demanded that Jews will refrain from renting apartments to non-Jews based their demand, inter alia, on the fear of miscegenation yet nobody wanted a Nuremberg-like laws. That would be hard to explain away. The result was the empowerment of the religious courts, who preceded Israel, by the young state. Since religious courts would not permit intermarriage between Jews and non-Jews, and would demand conversion, and since wishing to marry a Jew would automatically disqualify a gentile from conversion to Judaism, this seemed like a neat solution.
And so Israel adopted Sharia. Just dont tell American conservatives. Neocons, of course, being acolytes of the Noble Lie school, probably know this already.
And lie about it.'

btw, how do you feel about Oklahoma's ban on sharia law being overturned?
