| Removing the Veil. -

Removing the veil? The Mayor, Ken Livingstone suggests that leaders in the muslim community rather than exterior politicians and MPs should abolish the veil. The veil is very offensive in my view. It denies me the right to have a normal talk with that person. It makes me feel uneasy. Not to do with religion but more to do with covering up the face. I want to see the other person's emotions. I cannot detect any emotion when trying to speak with a full veiled person. In Turkey, they banned the Fez and in France, they made it a criminal offence to wear a religious scarf, a crucifix or any religious symbol. This does not deprive us of freedom. It gives us a greater freedom. It gives us the ability to feel at ease with all ethnic people and means we can build towards a world without war. Your views please. Should the veil be scrapped, made illegal to wear. Should it be kept. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
