Not a Christian country anymore?
Was it ever?
Is a country established by genocide and ethnic cleansing considered a Christian country?

The UPC expects their children (and adults as well) to get special allowances when it comes to their dress. I got special allowances all the time in school. I don't see the Muslims being any different.

It wouldn't be on the news if it were a christian athlete.

When my youngest started kindergarten they sent a questionaire about what parents thought of teaching alternative lifestyle choices in the school.

Islam is a totally false religion but at least most Moslem women are more modest than many who profess Christianity.

A while back, a Muslim woman was denied the right to have the picture on her drivers' license show her face completely covered with a veil. I don't remember the specifics. Perhaps some one else will.
Were her religious rights violated?
Or, should all drivers' licenses show a picture for identification purposes regardless of the driver's religious beliefs.
There are some difficult questions here.

I agree Prax. And I have read a little about what is happening in Britian.

Only if she is going to wear the veil when driving.

If they make a micro chip mandatory instead of a license or passport will you take one in your arm?

This is something called "bloodless jihad."
It involves having a large concentration of Muslims in an area.
Then they increase even larger by reproducing at a faster rate than non-Muslims. In time there are enough to vote in laws which comply with the Muslim faith. Then in time all are compelled to obey Sharia Law because it was legally voted in.

yes and this is happening as we speak in Europe. They are eyeing the political system. In the West we have been fools by believing as long as they are not bombing us left and right we are safe
