German State Court Upholds Headscarf Ban for Teachers

[Malaikah]

I'm sorry if that is how you see it guyabano but why should I disobey God and go to hell for something as stupid as people being intolerant of people looking like they belong to a religion.

So this is amazing freedom that Europe has to offer. They have done nothing other than take it to an opposite extreme. It really is freedom of religion being turned into freedom from religion.

So non-Muslims who do not ware a headscarf are not modest. Right?

No, I do not consider it to be a modest form of dress. And it doesn't matter if it is a non-Muslim or Muslims dressed that way. Problem?

It seems to me if the government applied a rule about headscarves after a teacher were hired (and had been wearing one for a while) then there might be some argument, but if the rule is understood ahead of time, it seems well within the rights of the government to make such policy.

And what about all those poor women who studied for years to become teachers and have to still pay of their university debts? Totally put out of a job!

A similar ban was introduced in the southern state of Bavaria in 2005 with the aim of protecting children from the influence of Islamic fundamentalists.

What rubbish! Yeh, sure, make a whole community suffer to keep out that one women who might be fundamental. I wonder what magically law they are going to invent next to keep out male Islamic fundamentalists?

I would like to ask something. What do muslim teachers (men and women) who teach in european schools, think about the things that they teach. I mean what they think about the programme, for example, can muslim teacher in public school teach about evolution theory, if he doesnt agree with this? Or about Israel? A muslim teacher in public european school, is a muslim first or teacher first? Because i think that this is all about. Secular state, Germany, wants to check, do muslims working in public, listen the german law, or Quaran.

^^ how is this on topic of petty bans on headscarf? or is hijacking threads just part of your overall hate campaign? if so carry on, otherwise use a new thread for new questions

What do muslim teachers (men and women) who teach in european schools, think about the things that they teach

why dont you go around, find some and ask them?

You know...it hardly seems fair to beat up on the Germans about this when the headscarf is banned in all government building (and universities) in Turkey

A Turkish Army officer, if it is discovered his wife wears a Muslim headscarf, will be booted out of the Army.

Now...who was that saying there was no political significance to the wearing of headscarves?

^^ I have known about Muslims being thrown in jail because Turkish police caught them praying 5 times in one day!

having said that; are your role models for human rights going to be Turkey, India, Egypt and Saudia?

if that is the case then All I can say is Shame on you Germany, o wait are they not the descendants of the people who used to gas entire populations and rob their posessions, for being different and I also remember other things that are to sick to post.
