Agreed. The banning of headscarves in france is also stupid.
Secularization of a country should never involve tyrannical laws to combat its theocratic (and tyrannical) past.

Not allowing someone to wear it is JUST AS BAD as forcing someone to wear it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thane Sherrington (S) Sent: Thursday, March 09, 2006 12:35 PM To: The Hardware List Subject: RE: [H] Failure Cars Standard with Wings was....

Getting rid of the head scarf is the first step if getting rid of the stupid trappings of the religion. Repeat after me: God doesn't care what you wear on your head. I'm all for spirituality. It's the bullshit traditions that make things a mess. T
