How unresourceful?

Exactly, I hate to say this but this terrorism issue is really going paranoia.

I believe you are aware that the bylaws and penal codes of certain countries are established on the foundations of their religion. So when the practices does not progress along with the developments overtime, it will just be seemingly cumbersome, insensitive and impractical. At the other end, I don't see how they could be hypocritical when it comes to religion tolerance, doing everything contrary to what is being advocated, as in the case of France, here.

@artemeis .. True...but it is still not the word of prophet or god. It means there might be other tenets or what the lord says that may have to be given precedence over what this foundation can import. It is always a comparative way I suppose. First priority is love for humanity in all religions and then mercy to life forms...as far as I understand. Then there are codes of conduct. When two are in conflict there should be extent of damage and extent of irreparable damage that would happen that needs to be considered for deciding which bylaws and penal codes can be overlooked. Likewise, purpose matters. But everything has been made so rigid!!! Take for example, somebody steals some money for food to be used for his and his family's survival out of no choice, can he be on par with another person who just wants to increase his or her bank balance and add to some expensive collection of his? Both may steal the same amount, but the purpose differs. One is doing out of necessity, other is doing out of addiction.

@artemeis .. There we differ. :) I agree...inflexibility in religion is like a pond in which the dirt keeps on accumulating..it needs to be cleaned periodically. In fact, chastity of women is at greater risk with Burkinis...I could wear that and go to a guy nobody would be able to tell whether it was me or another person. Likewise, a guy could come to me in Burkini and everybody would think I am only talking to a girl...smh..weird logic.

I believe over excessive should be a more suitable term since they are law enforcement. Anyway they (French authorities) were really going at it.

I don't see the point especially when there are so many ways to prevent future attacks. Also, it is a fact that the attacks were due to their lack of action on good intelligence - complacency being singled out. So I find this rather lame on the French authorities.

Oh? What happened there? I never knew this actually took place. Goodness and the "free" world seems to talk so much about freedom and rights. Sikhs need to wear their turbans and now they are being forced to remove it?

Well, it is sad indeed. I hope the French authorities will respect the womenfolks who are keeping in line with their religion. They can always conduct a search or spot checks. Just don't ask them to do something against their religion.
