If Muslims’ Veil is to Be Banned,Why Not Jews’ Cap’?

 

That is a good point made out from France,where ideas originate from a wide-angle, be it Muhammad Cartoon(though at an  inappropriate time).

Yes come to think of it. to me it sounds logical.

“Obviously, if the veil is banned, the kippa [should be] banned in public as well,” French politician tells ‘Le Monde.

French right-wing politician Marine Le Pen said she supports a ban on wearing kippot in public in addition to a ban on Muslim headscarves.

“Obviously, if the veil is banned, the kippa [should be] banned in public as well,” the French daily Le Monde quoted Le Pen, leader of the National Front, as saying in an interview published on Friday.

Le Pen’s anti-immigrant, anti-Islamist party long has supported a ban on Muslim headscarves, niqabs and burkas. France’s minister of education, Vincent Peillon, said Le Pen “was fanning the flames of fundamentalism” with her statements. “She is the main fundamentalist,” he said.

The president of the Conference of European Rabbis, Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, said Le Pen has, “once again, exposed herself as being unworthy of the mainstream French political space.

“Her suggestion of a ban on wearing a kippa in public takes us straight back to the times of state-sponsored anti-Semitism under the Vichy regime,” he said. “Any sane politician will disqualify these comments as total madness and profoundly insulting to the French ideals of freedom of expression.”

See the reaction.

If it is against Muslims,it is a A war on Terror,if against Jews , it is Anti-Semitism!

Excellent!

      Well.That’s true.If we apply rationalism to Religious practices, then we can not allow Christians to Proselytize or calling any body other than who believe in Christ have no salvation.
      All these religious practices harm society or others in some way,Depends on how one views it.
      Indian Philosophy is an exception and it is not an organised Religion and is purely personal.
