How do you know it was a "rant" Gary?
The original was very much in keeping with the type of anti muslim sentiments you regularly express on this board whilst feigning a lack of comprehension on your part.
In your original cut and paste you edited out "
...is a VERY primitive belief".
Why did you elect to do that? I mean it's not like you to be sensitive to the opinions (religious or other wise) of muslims.
Is it the case, contrary to your earlier assertions in this thread, that you actually
do understand certain elements of western culture (ie. that it's not generally socially acceptable - nor indeed legally permissable - to rubbish other peoples religion)? Are you trying to appear less ingrained than normal?
Is that your agenda?
You see Gary you appear to be a contradiction of yourself - you openly posit misinformation in relation to muslims and islam in a clear attempt to stir things up, yet here we have you acting as the arbiter of common sense and sensitivity when it comes to insulting followers of a religion which you quite obviously hold in contempt.
It does not help your case, as evidenced several times in this thread alone, that when asked a serious question you revert to childish inane ripostes. If you have an opinion on something it generally helps, not least from a discussion / adult perspective, if you can reasonably explain to others how you arrived at same.
Now, that said, how -
in your opinion - does banning the burkha tie in with
your understanding of what constitutes western culture?
