So in an open society you can't allow one bullshit while banning the other. Also a headscarf is still a far cry from being a burqa. Personally I think the French way is best. Banning all religious symbols from public buildings to emphasize that the state is secular.
I agree. No major religious symbols in public schools, for teachers AND students. A small cross that is barely noticeable is ok, and any similar symbol for another religion. Giant crosses, veils or anything that immediately screams "This is my religion!" is not.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
