The supreme law in the United States is the Constitution. No foreign or religious laws should be acceptable in any court be it local, state or federal court.
Why is this important?
I have lived in many countries, including Iran, Egypt. In Muslim countries Sharia religious law often dictates the killing of Gays, persecution of Christians, Baha'is and Jews, subordination of women, etc. I do not want this or any other religious law to influence legal decisions in our country.
