As a French living in Paris coming from a Muslim family I think ironically you may be the one living in a silo. Most French Muslims do not agree at all with "religion as something people slowly liberate themselves from", this may be common among your mostly white liberal friends I suppose but it is _not_ the case for Muslims. Also, as have been pointed out, there are plenty of Jewish, Muslims and Catholics dating apps in France.
- infruset 9y agoYes, I admitted as much in my other comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14921916 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14921916). Out of curiosity, do you think this has always been the case or is it a more recent trend?
