Some of us never heard about teachers being banned from wearing crosses, to be honest with you. Must be a regional or district thing.
Becuase the leftist journalists in this country dont care or cover it
Hey koods, ever hear of religious freedom?
Now back to the burkini, whatever the fuck that is, the only reason this is even an issue is because progressives are hellbent on forcing Muslim acceptance on the populace. France don't have religious freedom, why should they? They are a socialist country, freedom is not their "thing"

Yeah, the only problem is your right-wing pundits keep trying to spin the story into an "anti-Christian" slant, when the reality is that they were banned from wearing crosses because ALL religious garb is banned.
Meaning, Muslims would be banned from wearing niqab or hijab in these school districts, and Jews would be banned from wearing the kippah similarly, and so forth.
So no, contrary to what Fox News might be telling you, Christians aren't being persecuted for their beliefs.

Wiki actually says France does. Not only that, but they also appear to have separation of church and state like we do:
Quote:
Freedom of religion in France is guaranteed by the constitutional rights set forth in the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen.
Since 1905 the French government has followed the principle of laïcité, in which the State does not recognize any official religion (except for legacy statutes like that of military chaplains and the local law in Alsace-Moselle). Instead, it merely recognizes certain religious organizations, according to formal legal criteria that do not address religious doctrine. In return, religious organizations are to refrain from involvement in the State's policy-making.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_religion_in_France
Also what does socialism have to do with religious freedom? Lol... now you're just grasping at straws.

Crystal G said: France has banned the niqab and burkini, and police have even instructed women wearing the burkinis to undress and remove what they are wearing in public. What are your thoughts on this? Is this good, or an infringement upon religious freedoms?
I personally have two separate viewpoints on this. First, I believe that the burkini is indeed provocative and controversial, that is in fact, what it is intended to be.
Because any Muslim woman could simply wear a full-length wetsuit and a swimming cap, and that alone would be sufficient enough to follow dress code under Islamic law. But instead, people who buy these burkinis want to make a statement by showing off their religion to everybody--it is actually intended to be a provocative statement, not as innocuous as it is supposedly made out to be.
But on the other hand, terrorist activities are almost always carried out by men. So it irks me the wrong way, when it is women who end up penalized and oppressed because of these transgressions.
So... is it religious freedom, or is it France's right to play morality police?
Here is a video of the police forcing a woman to undress after she is caught wearing a hijab on the beach:
A few French beach communities just rescinded the ban. Idk its a complicated issue. Britain, France and Germany are going to have to deal with this before we do and hopefully we learn something about their experiences and the cause and effect etc. I don't want to be prejudiced, but even more I don't want to be taken over culturally.

They can do what they like, because it seems the only terrorists committing the attacks are either Muslims or Islamic. There is nothing wrong with punishing those who are responsible. If an American or Englishman went to say, Saudi Arabia, then we would be forced to follow stupid laws as well or end up being raped by them. Is there any Christians committing these acts? NO. What about Buddhists? NO.
What about Muslim & Islamic brainwashed slaves? YES.

Agreed. What's the difference between Muslim and Islamic? I thought the terms were synonymous.

In a seeming U-turn, the Islamic State (Isis) has reportedly banned women wearing the burka in northern Iraq after claiming that its fighters have been targeted by a veiled female. The hard-line faction has previously beaten and killed women for not wearing a veil covering their face and hair in public.
