Center for the Study of Political Islam is a Nashville-based, for-profit organization founded by former Tennessee State University physics professor Bill French. The organization is a leading opponent of the construction of a mosque in Murfreesboro. A lengthy investigation by Bob Smietana of The Tenessean described one of French's appearances at an event opposing the mosque:
- With an American flag as a backdrop, French paced back and forth like the Church of Christ ministers he heard growing up. His message: how creeping Shariah law is undermining the very fabric of American life.
- "This offends Allah," said French, pointing to the flag on the wall. "You offend Allah."
- French, who has no formal education in religion, believes Islam is not a religion. Instead, he sees Islam and its doctrine and rules — known as Shariah law — as a totalitarian ideology.
- In his 45-minute speech, he outlined a kind of 10 commandments of evil — no music, no art, no rights for women — taken from his book Sharia Law for Non-Muslims. The speech was free, but his books, penned under the name "Bill Warner," were for sale in the back and ranged from about $9 to $20.[1]
