Typical reply from an islamist that never left the muslim country where he lives.

I'm an American atheist and you're a chauvinist troglodyte

Even if 1 person benefits with the law then the law is worth it. Or do you think that the law needs to benefit everybody? The law needs to protect the most vunerable. In this case the muslim women.

If all it did was marginally help people, that would be good. But it doesn't just do that, it also hurts people, and that's the only reason people here are arguing against it (we don't have "Haram Police" here decrying infidels). It is punishing children for adhering to a clearly mostly benign cultural practice. Yeah, we can criticize it, but that's different from indiscriminately outlawing it or framing every single girl wearing a baggy dress as a victim of child abuse, and this all fits within a larger framework of plainly anti-Muslim policy forcing people to either assimilate or have no place in public life.

Typical NuAtheist reactionary bullshit. Yes, mistreating someone and pressuring them to wear this or that is bad, but that includes using the law to force people who do themselves prefer to wear an abaya or whatever else to not do so. Insofar as we can even call this a legitimate issue, it is one with far greater complexity than can be solved with sledgehammer legislation, even if some people do benefit, because many do not.

The sermon bit reminded me of Deen Squad.

Dawkins and Harris yet live, unfortunately

This is like the democrats who applaud gun control even when it is used with surgical precision to prevent black communities from defending themselves from police violence. "I don't support police violence, I simply approve of gun control".

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread.

"Just assimilate to Christian culture, Muslims. I'm anti-religion of all kinds, btw."

You are too caught up in liberal abstraction to allow yourself to understand the material reality.

I think a better line is that they have school on Fridays but not on Sundays

I'm an antitheist and, speaking as one, let me request that you pull your head out of whatever it is stuck in. France is notoriously Islamophobic and these are girls who are just wearing loose-fitting clothes because of a religious practice based on modesty. Is either the religion or the practice itself above critique? Certainly not, but forcing people not to do something so harmless is ridiculous religious discrimination.

It's constitution has not even been amended to not include Mongolia, let alone mainland China.

And the KMT did do a number on the indigenous Formosan population.

reply with a wall of text

And here I thought that the classic tankie reply was low-effort trolling and shitposting. parenti-hands

I believe they mean by continuously sabotaging peace accords and talks
