why don't you bestow upon us your great knowledge then oh wise one?

you haven't even contributed anything to the topic.

All you did was come into the thread to hate on me

I didn't come here to "bestow my great knowledge" or to hate on you, but when I saw that post I couldn't keep quiet. It's indefensible, incredibly ignorant, and reflects the mental maturity of a six year old.

Mr November

How can we be talking about whether or not this is a violation of Muslim women's rights, when in muslim countries like Iran, women's rights are being violated in such an unquestionable fashion?

If you were a woman which rights would you rather see challenged? (If you are a woman... just ignore the first part... actually just in general as people, what's more important - you're right to wear certain religious clothing, or your right not to be hung for random **** just because of your gender or any other stupid reason? ) <- right bracket because I didn't forget that this was a bracket type dealio.

Because those are two different subjects.

Mr November

I think it is related - because it sets up a huge double standard.

What you're saying is that society has to respects religions rights, while religion doesn't have to respect human rights.

People have a right to believe whatever they want - I'm 100% against thought crime - but what are religious rights? Do people have a right to do whatever they want if they believe it is inspired by supernatural forces?

And if you want to say this is more cultural than religious (Islam is a religion of culture), then the same question applies.

Dotoar

No, that's not what he said. Religion cannot have any rights, only people can, including the right to practice faith in a certain religion.

I guess it's not an option for France to respect any culture other than French?

Seems that way, that's why i say it's better to move to another country that is more respectful of other cultures/religions.

they fucking hate the English, as far as I know

on topic - Muslim women here only cover their hair, burqas are strongly discouraged here, mostly citing it's a desert thing to keep the sand out of their faces

there's no neccessity to wear a hair scarf, neither is there any prohibition against burqas here but most Muslim girls wear hair-scarves

and neways, Muslims here are horny as all get out, I don't see how a burqa would be of any help

That's the first time I laughed today, I love the saying "as all get out". Thanks!
