Cameron to say face veils need to be removed for officials

Why? Faith schools are perfectly acceptable. They can have advantages.

I was at a religious primary school and I found that perfectly fine. It meant that I had to sing hymns.

I was not disadvantaged in any way by attending a faith school.

So no motor bike helmets then or Jewish Kippah's

Or Hats or hoodies

You've really not though this through have you.

The difference is people with hoodies or hats on remove them when asked. Same can't be said for veils.

It's quite literally indoctrination. How can you in ANY WAY justify teaching false truths to kids who aren't even yet old enough to think or act fully autonomously?

Except it isn't indoctrination. My school had a Christian ethos and it was very mixed. It had a lot of Christian children, yes, but also Muslim children and children who had no faith at all.

You're being spoonfed the belief that a God exists as if it were fact, before you even possess an ounce of scientific knowledge, or the ability to come to your own conclusions from your own judgements. It is indoctrination when you force a doctrine upon children who don't know any better. How is it condonable that children are taught Creationism before evolution?

Also, your anecdotal evidence does not disprove the reality of other schools. There was not a single Muslim in my primary school of 300 children. Even then, why is Christian ethos necessary?

I believe that God does exist. We had a vicar attached to the school from the local church. He provided a lot of pastoral care. He didn't just preach.

A Christian ethos can provide an alternative outlook on the world.

And you believe that because you were indoctrinated. Are you genuinely going to refute that there is a correlation between type of school attended as a child and religion followed
later in life, whilst being living proof that such a relationship exists?



It can provide a deluded outlook, that's for sure.

I was not indoctrinated. I have independence of thought. I am intelligent. I look critically at the world and I decided that I would follow the Christian faith.

I have never regretted that decision. That decision has provided me with a great amount of comfort and support.

This isn't my attempt to persuade you. Don't feel the need to reaffirm your position to me; I'm already aware that you are beyond the point of salvaging, as every other indoctrinated individual is.

I am not indoctrinated. I follow a religious faith. You are so incredibly patronising it's unbelievable.

Do you not think that maybe, just maybe, an intelligent person can believe something that is different to what you believe.

Face veil should be allowed I don't see anything wrong with it

I think your tone is incredibly condescending and patronizing

and your incredulity that someone might be so inclined to follow a faith or maintain a belief

even after evaluating and engaging in rational thought has put your own thought process in denial.
