Farangs in Thailand have no power to change anything. They are too sensible to allow us voting rights or permanent residency just because we hung around there for a few years. Wish my country was like that.

Saudi has a good scheme- get in if have a job and go home when the job ends or too old.

Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait.. all have similar laws on immigration.

all religions are a cult ... IMHO

We can agree on that.

Religion soils/spoils everything. Religion is a euphemism for infectious insanity.

 

But as Jeebus said "the nut cases will always be with us".

You can forget going to watch your kids Christmas Nativity plays cos they are banned. 

Christmas nativity plays were never banned , just some schools banned parents from taking photos during the nativity play , but the Nativity plays were never banned from any schools

Of course. They don't want religious nuts subverting their own particular brand of lunacy and repression.

 

Every religion boasts of their very own 'One True God'.

Makes me wonder if all those gods have a religion  with One Truer God.

What race or religion wears that?

The Jamaican rasta wear very colorful clothes. Is that what you mean? I guess you could call that both a race and a religion if that's what you're seeking.

 

The real point is that Islam seeks to infiltrate, subvert, and finally dominate any country they enter. It is a pillar of their culture. Islam is not a religion, it's a cult.

For the extremists, yes. Just like any other religion.

Can you get any more racist than that.  Are the other religions restricted from wearing such clothing;

Jews & kippah/ tznuit

Sikh & dastar

Amish & organdy head bonnet

Uni religion or Atheist from a scarf

They are working on it. I don't think Amish clothing is much of a concern in France...

 

From the BBC source article:

 

Quote

It has been updating the law over the years to reflect its changing population, which now includes the Muslim headscarf and Jewish kippa, but abayas have not been banned outright.

Also, religion is not a race. People are far too quick to pull out the race card.

In a Church a Mosque or a Synagogue...religion is plainly an excuse and outlet for many freaks who just want to take the readings out of context and spread their hate with preaching extremists.

 

The Bible, the Coran, the Torah and so on,  have never advocated for hate in their texts.

Like this one Nick.

 

A primary school infuriated parents after cancelling the traditional Christmas nativity play to make way for the Muslim festival of Eid.

Parents at the Nottingham school were told that the planned performance had to be pulled because some of the pupils wanted to celebrate Eid at home with their families.

In a letter, sent by the staff at Greenwood Junior School, mothers and fathers were told: 'It is with much regret that we have had to cancel this year's Christmas performances.

Ones religious belief, if they have one, is -or should be, a purely private matter (sadly in most cases hoisted upon one at birth). It should be kept that way. PRIVATE. Not open for all to see. Do what/wear what you like in private, but conform to accepted norms in public.

That is a story from 2008 and the play was cancelled until the New Year and it wasn't banned . 

   The claim was that Nativity plays were banned in Schools and your story from 15 years ago is just one play being delayed for a few weeks

A brave choice from France.

 

Hope it does not lead to French flags, French sybols getting burned or vandalised or bibles getting burnt in anti french riots.

 

Reminds us of the other extreme right wing freaks burning Qurans in Sweden or Danemark,  who are no better.

Did it happen? I am not going to start page after page of incidents but it happens especially in Yorkshire and other areas of high Muslim communities. The excuse is the usual it is because photos or Videos are taken, In reality, it is the fear of upsetting non-Christian pupils.

Maybe they don't have a problem with those other religions.
