  1. Make sense. France is a secular country, so public schools must be neutral đŸ‘đŸ»

  2. ⁠ @wamnicho  How exactly did you manage to make a connection between public schools and LGBT rights in Saudi Arabia?
    32
  3. Asking Muslims to follow the same rules as everybody else is “hating them”?! How come?
    14
  4.  @seanluzdeluna8153  It is. Please check the dictionary.
    11
  5. It’s not about “culture”, it’s about the fact that France is a secular country.
    9
  6.  @sanathgunawardena832  Please stop saying nonsense. No religion is banned in France.
    9
  7.  @user-fed-yum  Nuns go to public school?
    7
  8. Nobody is banning religious freedom. You can always put your child into private Muslim/Catholic/Jewish school. However in a secular country public schools must stay neutral.
    6
  9. No. You are not allowed to be the only one who brings religion in the public school in a secular country. That’s how democracy works 😉
    5
  10. Whether you like it or not, but it’s true.
    5
  11. Yes, secularity is an important part of the democracy.
    5
  12.  @MrBlaxjax  France is a secular country. So it’s about freedom for all, not some.
    5
  13.  @CricketEngland  The difference is important. Nobody is allowed to wear religious clothes in a public school. Why muslims should be an exception?
    4
  14. Yes. It is.
    3
  15. Nope. Just a logical secular country.
    3
  16.  @user-fed-yum  I do. It’s my country and I like it being secular 😄
    3
  17. No, France doesn’t hate Islam. Just want Muslim to respect the same laws as everybody else.
    2
  18. What “pressure” are you talking about? It is the same secular rule for everyone đŸ€—
    2
  19.  @viorelpiscanu9425  Yes, it is. Public schools should stay neutral.
    2
  20. France is a secular country. Public schools are paid by the government/tax system. So they should stay neutral.
    2
  21. There is no sense in your comparison. And you know it.
    2
  22.  @gdewyg  No. However you should respect the French law.
    2
  23. You can wear whatever you like at home. However public schools are paid by public money and should stay neutral.
    2
  24. If your child goes to the public school, s/he shouldn’t wear religious clothes. It’s normal.
    2
  25.  @galatheumbreon6862  Sure. What part of the secular country you don’t quite get?
    2
  26. This is a great decision for France. It is a secular country and should protect its public schools.
    2
  27.  @khoyrulislam  It’s a religious clothes, not a simple « long dress ». And you know it.
    2
  28. No, it is not meaningless. Secularity should be protected.
    2
  29. May I say “amen” to your comment? 😉
    2
  30. Freedom and chaos are not synonymes 😉
    2
  31. And this is great. Everybody who prefers Afghanistan with Taliban can always move.
    2
  32.  @Mahmud9171  Why? Just dressed in a normal clothes, not a religious one.
    1
  33.  @samuelthompson8080  Your comment has no sense.
    1
  34. Uniform in all public schools? It’ll cost a fortune to the parents. So it’s easier to simply follow the secularity rules 😉
    1
  35.  @jongoth  Please check your data. The majority of European schools with a mandatory uniform are private. And tuition is quite substantial.
    1
  36. If Muslims do not want to respect local laws, then what “respect” we are talking about??
    1
  37. What hate you are talking about?
    1
  38. Stop your nonsense please. France is not banning any religion.
    1
  39. Bullocks. It’s a normal secular country. If you personally prefer to live in taliban, you can always move.
    1
  40. No, it is not.
    1
  41.  @hasanmumin9653  The fact that France is a secular country.
    1
  42.  @nathang-en3io  Please do. However kindly open the dictionary first and read what a secular country means 😉
    1
  43. Quite the opposite.
    1
  44. No, it is not. Secularity is important for the public school.
    1
  45. It is simply not true.
    1
  46. Public schools are for all, so they should be neutral.
    1
  47. Secular is not atheist. Don’t be lazy, read some books 😏
    1
  48. Yes, this is a democracy. And a secular country. If you don’t like it, the world is big.
    1
  49. France is a secular country. And hopefully will always be one.
    1
  50. For doing what? For being a secular country? That is a great choice! That’s why people of various religions and beliefs can live there đŸ€—
    1
  51. First of all many Muslim countries do ban other cultures and religion. And secondly secular country (and France is the one) doesn’t ban any religion.
    1
  52. Why do you hate people for being reasonable?
    1
  53. It’s not about “banning Islam”.
    1
  54. France is not banning any religion.
    1
  55. Really? 😆
    1
  56. No. Public schools are neutral from all religions.
    1
  57. Why?
    1
  58. France is a secular country. So public schools must stay neutral.
    1
  59. Please buy a dictionary, it should help to distinguish secular from facsist.
    1
  60. Public schools are neutral in France. So no religious clothes for anyone.
    1
  61. What girl’s education has to do with it???
    1
  62. It is not new. France has been a secular country for a while. And it is perfectly fine.
    1
  63. That’s only your opinion. I personally moved to France because it’s a secular country đŸ€—
    1
  64. Shame is your unwillingness to even understand the importance of the secularity 😏
    1
  65. Your comment is indeed ridiculous. Secularity on the other hand is crucial and should be protected.
    1
  66. What are you talking about?
    1
  67. Since when secularity is an “idiot idea”?
    1
  68. Indeed.
    1
  69. How did you come to this strange conclusion?
    1
  70. Public schools are neutral. So France is 100% right.
    1
  71. Bullocks 😂 It’s just a normal secular country.
    1
  72. No, France is a secular country and wants its public schools to be neutral.
    1
  73. Yes. It is. That is why it is a secular country.
    1
  74. France is a secular country. If you don’t understand it, please google and read more đŸ€—
    1
  75. This is not true. Girls do not need abaya to study.
    1
  76. You are trying to use words you do not even understand 😏
    1
  77. Because Muslim (catholic, Jewish..) schools are private and cost money đŸ€—
    1
  78. You can wear whatever you want in your church/synagogue/mosque/temple. But public schools should stay neutral.
    1
  79. So if Muslims are asked to respect the law, then it “violates their human rights”?! How so?
    1
  80. No, it is not. Public schools are neutral in a secular country. It’s normal.
    1
  81. đŸ€ŠđŸŒâ€â™€ïž
    1
  82. France is not banning any religion.
    1
  83. Your comment is hypocritical indeed. French law is not. Secular country = neutral public schools.
    1
  84. Quite the opposite. A great country.
    1
  85. No. Another secular rule that Muslim have to follow like everybody else.
    1
  86. Not in a public school. It should stay neutral.
