Remind me which country is the one with the hijab ban in schools? Is it america or is it France? And you want to tell me you’re not having a religious conflict over there?
As I wrote: "a significant part of the population is still strongly against any kind of religion".
All religious signs are banned in schools not only the hijab. France views religion as strictly a private matter which has no place at all in the public sphere. That’s not a religious conflict just widely incompatible with the American view on the subjects.
But even then, as a French, I would applaud anything going against religions. The faster we get ride of obscurantism the better the world.
