Laws against religious symbols in public places such as schools are what kept France from turning into a muslim country. But, this is the past. Even if those laws are still there, they are not upheld enough by far. Most muslims and teachers go against the law and let the muslim female wear their symbol of submission to muslim males domination.
You DO know there are countries in the world where women are KILLED because they didn't wear their Hijab or Burqa ?
This isn't a religious symbol I want allowed in France.
Freedom doesn't work if freedom allows stuff that go against freedom, like hate speech and hateful religions.
- unalone 18y agoIt's not so cut-and-dry as that, because the idea of complete freedom means you can have hate speech and hateful religions. George Carlin once proved this point emphatically by screaming the word "nigger" repeatedly, with the intent of having people less shocked at words. One thing he constantly would talk about in his routines is the idea that words lose power the more you use them, and that it's a bad thing to let a bad word have power over you. Similarly, a person's religion is their choice. It should be wrong to discriminate based on religion, so long as you don't reverse discriminate as well. If a woman wants to wear a hijab, so long as it is her choice and nobody else's, she should be allowed. While you might argue that it's encouraging a phallocentric religion - and I'd agree - the solution isn't banning that religion, it's spreading reason far and wide so that more people make the choice to leave it.
