"Separate but equal" isn't really accurate because if Sharia is allowed, then they won't be equal.

You`re correct.
It`s not an entirely accurate analogy but I think the outcome will be close to the same if it continues.

Just wondering, is there an actual list of laws in Sharia? I know Sharia is the legal aspect of Islam, but what are all of the actual laws? Is there a list?

There is no list really as there are 5 different schools of sharia law and all are slightly different not to mention that the laws are different from country to country.

You`d have to take one systems Sharia and analyze it alone without comparison to get an understanding of the geopolitical influence.

If your interested Wiki has a nice overview..

The Muslim population of Ireland is only 2% , and of that 2% only a small number proclaimed they would want Ireland to be governed by Sharia law, and I believe they were all young men, who are typically imo quite vociferous about their idealism.

On the homosexual issue, Ireland doesn't have a very good record here, they have rejected the requirement of the EU to allow gay marriage, and have only recently reduced the age of consent to 17 for gay men from 21 .
Shocking. Then again we could ask ourselves where that comes from and end up with another Abrahamic religion, or two variations of one. So it's not that surprising, though in this time of progressiveness I find it sad that we are not reaching our potential. It is clear that there is only one force holding advancement down these days, and it has nothing to do with reality.
