Thread Name: BS: Muslim veil ban in Belgium
Subject: RE: BS: Muslim veil ban in Belgium
When a man tells a women what to wear, that's all wrong, but when the government does, that's right?

There are some who believe that all women should go veiled and all men should wear beards, as was compusory under the Taliban - which means that wearing a veil or a beards can certainly be a mark of religious oppression.

So as I said, can we look foprward to a ban on veils being extended into a ban on beards, in the name of freedom from religious oppression. Regardless of the wishes of the people directly concerned.
