Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

My remark about an ideal world was a mildly ironic reference to your remark that children should be allowed to wear what they like in school. Of course, you immediately listed a bunch of restrictions on that. One more, one less... Apparently only religious motives are supposed to override all others, in your world view (I felt naked not being allowed to wear jeans to high school... you no doubt felt the same... guess what, we got over it!)

As for the problem that, according to you, only exists in my fantasy... This puts you in the position of denying the existence of the fundamentalist worldview. That, based on my experience, is astoundingly naïve.
