Most people also do not realize the similarities of the Islamic religion with other Abrahamic(sic) religions, such as Christianity or Judaism.

It is. I mean I can't say it any more bluntly than that. It is to keep minds pure, so to speak because it lessens "sin". The head scarf is actually carried over from the Jewish religion but the actual burqa is meant to lessen sin by not having guys (or gals, I guess) lust over the women, or the women to be an object of said lust.

Edited to add: The idea of Muslim women "covering up", is to keep them from being the object of lust and therefore help them in their daily worship of god. If a man lusts over a women, it could lead to not only more sin by the guy, but also by the gal.

How can you, I mean if nobody see your face, how do you eat etc ...
Its a constraint, nobody would wear that without being forced.

Don't be an idiot, you are forcing me to write an idiot proof response:
From your post:
"Its a constraint, nobody would wear that without being forced"
From my head:
"Its a constraint, nobody would eat sh1t without being forced"
Source:
"2 girls 1 cup"
They women are religious, that is the life they chose, heck think about priests, they chose a life without sex, or marriage, or any partners. Who would want that? They never have sex, some do in hiding and with kids, but most don't, yes it is difficult, but it doesn't mean they are forced.
Your conclusion is deeply flawed, but propaganda makes your conclusion look logical./
The men can get jailtime for forcing their wives to wear this, and a 15.000 euro fine.I have seen those women in the hot sun and trying to eat with the burqa, its ridiculous , insulting and degrading for women, thus the point for banning these camp sites.You people can learn a thing or two from French Laicite.

There is nothing similar at all, muslims worship the moon god, who had 3 daughters only. Christians worship the True G_D whose has only one begotten Son, Lord Jesus Christ.

Muslim youths rape women

You DO know that the the second part of this sentence totally destroys the validity of the first part, right?
Someone who rapes anyone, is NOT A MUSLIM.

According to their belief if a woman does not have a khirma/burqa she is a prostitute and must be treated so...hence the rapings...
