Pupils will be banned from wearing abayas, loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women, in France’s state-run schools, the education minister has said.
The rule will be applied as soon as the new school year starts on 4 September.
France has a strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.
Wearing a headscarf has been banned since 2004 in state-run schools.
France isn’t really super Christian anymore for a Christian nation. About 50% of the French claims to be Christian and a 1/3 claims to have no religion. Compare that to Italy which is 80% Christian
What percent is Muslim? How is that proportionality among teachers, or among legislators? And how many laws are still enforced from a time when France was much more Christian? What is the religious makeup of those who wrote the French literary classics and the history textbooks?
It sounds like you’ve researched next to nothing of what you’re talking about and are just making grandstanding statements based on pre-existing conclusions.
