Now, surely you cannot disagree with #2. So how can you in that same breath tell someone they can't wear religious-based articles?
You know, even in friggin airports and immigration, they don't have to show their face from under the burka? This infuriates me.

I've been to a few airports where security is totally busting my balls, and a group of women pass right through, everything covered by their eyes. I'm like WTF!!!!!!

I don't want to be told what to do, and if someone wants to wear a burka or a cross, so be it BUT don't push it on me, and you do NOT get special privileges because of it. I look at them as accessories.

Having said that, I think having to wear anything for religion is incredible stupid. Almost as stupid as religion itself.
