LOL I hope you're not going to tell a Hare Krishna something like that either, and what does that have to do with concealment of the face in public space?
On an earlier point, observing dress code in ME, not being allowed to hold hands in public, prolonged looks at women, are not just suggestions for westerners to observe out of respect. Such misconducts are punishable by fines or jail time. Which is OK...when in Rome etc....

concealment of there face in public relates to religious based dress ......same as the Cassock does.
We are talking about here not Rome or the ME ....we don't control the way other people dress here in our Country
...the state of undress may be a concern in most public places here .
Just kinda curious, how many Catholics wear the Cassock?
I was under the impression that it was just the spiritual leaders - you know the priests etc, not the general population of practising Catholics.
Some people can go their whole lives and never really live for a single minute.

I had a long holiday in an Islamic country a while ago, in the biggest city in that country, and very rarely did I see burqas being worn, some more niqabs. But further into the country both were more prevalent. Some Islamic countries are more progressive than others, I guess.

Good point. That comparison was between what could be considered as a 'uniform' vs general population. Irrelevant.

Catholic Priest, permitted to wear different clothing which fits his position and religion
A women (a member of the public) permitted to wear appropriate clothing in order to observe her religion
or do some think the Catholic Priest is a higher human and his religion is superior ?

Iza, that is just a diversionary tactic, the robes some wear, the burqa covers the entire body and face.
