France's burkini ban overturned by highest court

I do not think the state has the right to tell people that they cannot wear clothing that covers their skin. Think of it this way. The law as it is being applied in France essentially says it's OK to be topless on a beach but it's illegal to be there if you are covered up. How can that make sense? It doesn't to me.

I agree with the goal of protecting Christianity's place in society. I just think that this isn't the right tactic because it strengthens 'Big Brother' and this is a greater threat than Islam.

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
