The old woodcutter spoke again. “It is impossible to talk with you. You always draw conclusions. Life is so vast, yet you judge all of life with one page or one word. You see only a fragment. Unless you know the whole story, how can you judge?"

If I recall correctly the French banned head coverings in schools as well. Possibly in all government buildings.

By the way, Christians who wear modest swimwear have been similarly banned from some French beaches by the same rules that ban "Burkinis."
