When I say integrate, I mean educate about our secular laws and constitutions and civil rights.
And, explain how secularism makes religious freedom possible.
I noticed that, in the American press in particular, the journalists write, "Isn't France horrible and racist? Look at how they make Muslim immigrants go to class to learn about French citizenship if they break French laws."
I think this is a terrific way to handle the situation. I think we need to focus more on educating new immigrants about secularism and equal protection and civil rights.
And, I think we need to start holding Mormons and JWs and Amish and Southern Baptists and all of the other Xtian hardcores in the US to the same secular laws and constitutions.
I know a few JWs who could use some American citizenship classes.
