Laicite is stupid
France doesn't understand freedom of religion, a fundamental human right which they have pledged to uphold. Take the french school headscarf ban or the stupid outrage about the Burkini
- mr_toad 6y ago> freedom of religion, a fundamental human right They believe in not forcing people to follow a state religion. That’s not the same as letting people do whatever they want because “religion”. It’s not like most religions believe in freedom of religion anyway. The same people who argue for the right to wear certain headwear belong to a religion that prescribes the death penalty for apostasy.
- notsureaboutpg 6y agoMost religions don't believe in freedom of religion, correct. OP is saying lacite is stupid because it's a type of secular religion rather than true freedom which does not maintain an orthodoxy.
- Bakary 6y agoThey do understand the concept, they just start from premises that are different from that of the anglosphere.
- ClumsyPilot 6y agoPerhaps freedom from religion is a fundamental human right. Perhaps there are valid concerns that many women are being forced to cover themselves against their will, but are unable to do much about it. I havent studied this spesific issue enough to say either way, but I am not clear where your certainty is coming from.
