X,
The way I understand the process is that people in disagreement with the established laws here in the U.S. have a means by which to make change through the political process (this is based in doctrine as opposed to statement of fact. Your State may vary ).
If Sharia is not to supecede US law, then I suppose it would be reduced to somthing more of a moral code for those who "sign up" for it much like the Amish, Menonites, LDS or other groups (religious or non) that have established rules for conduct and lifestyle. Provided those rules/beliefs do not lead to conduct that violates established laws.
That being said, they (muslims) have that freedom now.....so why the debate on an official recognition?
