Pat Condell nails it: where are the feminists on the burqa?
July 8, 2009 2:57 pm Culture, Islam and the West, PoliticsPat Condell minces no words in his atheism. So I do not agree with his idea of God, indeed, I do not think God is an idea. (Someone needs to inquire why so many ex-Roman Catholics are so hostile to religion in general and God in particular. Time for some inquiry by the Church on that topic).
But his latest posting (about July 8, 2009) on the wearing of the burqa, and the silence of feminists on the same topic, is profoundly agreeable to hear. Where the hell are the feminists when it comes to the oppression of women under Islam? The most important issue for women in the world now is Islam. Why the complicit silence?
