I really consider myself as an open minded individual trying to accept and understand all cultures of our global village, the called modern world.
I would like to remember the recent controversy about the womens dress code (burcas) living in european countries and also about the minarets and mosques also in european countries.
I don't have a religion and I try to have human rights at very first place in my life horizont...

Just want to  focus on a few points:

1. I accept that in some countries a women has to live totally covered do to their believes...
2. I accept that natives in some countries you are not allowed to liquor consumption...
3. I know that mosques and minarets are basically important for some religions...

All the above mentionated facts are connected to human rights, tolerance and a more and more globalized world but... shouldn't this rights be applicable in both directions?

Now the opposite 3 points:

1. Why should western women cover at least their head and shoulders when in a moslem or islamic country?
2. Why are foreigners from western countries not allowed to have their beer, wine or scotch in this countries?
3. Why isn't it posible for christians to visit a church on a sunday in this countries just because their are not existing?

Shouldn't human rights work in both ways? I'm conscious that I touched a very delicated issue and that not everyone is willing to express their thoughts about it...
