With Muslim head-scarves banned in French schools, and religion forced out of the public square, Muslim parents have been enrolling their children in Catholic schools. Interesting to see, yet again, how the laîcité that was designed to prevent the abuse of religion—chiefly by the Catholic Church—ended up restricting religion, so that Muslims who want to educate their children in an environment friendly to religion turn to religious schools—chiefly those run by the Catholic Church.
