Re: ...the education minister said a proposed ban on Muslim veils could also outlaw beards if they were judged to be a sign of faith.

"signs and clothes which conspicuously manifest the religious affiliation of the pupils."

I figure as long as they don't pubically display there's no problem

"Pious Muslim men wear beards in obedience to the Prophet Mohammad, who is said to have instructed them to do so.

What happened to the practice of "When in Rome, do as the Romans"?
If the mouthy pious Muslim bastards want full rein to practice their unreformed 6th century cult religion - they should remain in Islamic nations...

How far must the West permit their "practices" in our countries?
How far must we go along with this shit that "Mohammad said"...

Must we allow them 4 wives?
Must we allow them to murder unfaithful wives?
Must we allow them to murder disobedient daughters?
Must we allow them to murder Jews or Gentiles at will?

Why should WE be accepting and tolerant of their murderous cult behavior - when Saudi Arabia will not even permit Christians and Jew to openly practice their religion in the entire country - or to even visit some sites which the Muslims consider "holy"....

There is not a single Christian church in ALL OF SAUDI ARABIA....

I would suggest the Muslims shut the hell up, until they have EARNED more consideration than the murderous bastards deserve....

First - they need to clean up their "flock", drive the murderous radical lunatics within- out into the open and out of all positions of leadership or respect...

Until then, I will regard all Muslims as a potential threat...

Wow. I guess Madeline Albright, Janet Reno and Helen Thomas better cancel any vacation plans to France.

This is an example of one of the many ways in which greater diversity creates less freedom for everyone.

"France Adds Beards to List of Taboo Religious Signs."

Does anyone think that the majority of the female French citizens will be told to shave their beards as well as their arm pits and legs?

Mark my words, the day fast approaches when France will have to choose between mass deportations or Sharia law.
