    Well done France. I wish the rest of the non Muslim world would follow suit.

  • Not racist.  The French law on secularity and conspicuous religious symbols in schools bans wearing all conspicuous religious symbols in government schools.  It does not specifically target Islam.

    Excellent news, now I hope other 'Western Countries' take a similar course, but I seriously doubt it?

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.

And what would you say if in Thailand the Thai's think the same about us farangs ? Such ideas you advocate work both ways.

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.

This is how Muslim Radicalization begins in Schools, Once they are allowed to wear the headress the parents then begin demanding they alter School Dinners remove pork dishes, and then demand Muslim-only teachers You can forget going to watch your kids Christmas Nativity plays cos they are banned. If you turn up and try to call for a meeting you're accused of racial discrimination. I'm with Prakhonchai on this one if you are unwilling to wear traditional School Uniforms for all,  School them at home.

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

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".

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

Hard to get everybody agree.

 

Some people hate muslims.

Some people hate jews.

Some people hate christians.

Others hate farangs.

 

Hate is never the solution. Saying "they started it first" is not really constructive to live in peace.

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.

They should be though unless it's a private school.

Trump's new court is working feverishly to make government and religion one and the same. Kinda like Islam is.

I also would no be surprised about the girls feeling relieved, being allowed again to dress like the other girls, i.e. with just jeans and sweat-shirt

Haven't you heard the news ?

Trump isn't POTUS anymore and also Trump is nothing to do with this story about headwear in French Schools

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

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

That picture speaks a million words about what is wrong with western education and integration !

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.
