>>>...." Muslims might be represented in the government of France. And you think this is NOT a step forward for ANY country. Why? Because they are Muslims. QED."<<< NO zonder, because they are a religious group. Huh??? Are you suggesting that everyone who is born a Muslim is part of a religious group in a way that is different than how everyone who is born a Christian is part of a religious group? Are you trying to say that everyone who is born a Muslim is automatically a religious fanatic??? Please clarify your statement. IMO a secular government is the way to go Why would a government with some Muslims representing the Muslim minority in the country NOT be a secular government??? Turkey has a government where 100% are Muslim. Is it NOT a secular government in your opinion? That's what my comment was about, religions in government Right. Christians in government is not "religions in government", but a Muslim or two who represent the minority is supposed to raise alarms because it is "religions in government". Aren's you being a little biased?
