Then you have to allow me to wear a spaghetti strainer on my head as it’s the official wear for followers of FSM.
Let’s be honest, if you want to wear a colander, I’m not sure I see an issue with it. Just remember, by Quebec law, Pastafarians can’t follow their traditions, yet Christians can.
Are you going to sit at a government office in front of somebody you can’t even see because she is 100% covered, even the eyes? Should we allow it a step further, allow that in class rooms (yes, I’ve seen cases for that too)?
I’m not seeing how this is an issue, like at all. And even if it was, what’s the issue with other religious garb?
How about then the next step where they will demand that they can only interact with women because their god demands it?
You’re making a straw-man argument here. No, we do not allow people to hold positions if they can’t fulfill the requirements. Sometimes, we have to review whether the requirements are ethnocentric, but I think it’s good that we question rules and regulations to decide whether their accurate to the requirements. In the case you’re laying out, I’m almost certain they would be considered unsuitable for the job.
In general, your argument seems to be, “I hate religion, so I approve of any law that screws over practitioners.” That doesn’t seem very logical. Can you put your emotions aside, and actually explain why government workers should be banned from wearing religious garb?
Wow. That is quite the vitriolic rant.
