RE: French Secularism, suburbia and Burning Beds

Luke, I picture you with a canoe paddle sized spoon, sweating over a tea cup
sized pot. France like Jacob's Ruben has always had problems with women,
especially the types with a book under one arm and a large lit match held
over the head with the other. You know, it all ends up the same, Ruben,
lying in bed, wakes up to flames, the mistress standing over him.

A friend in the Catholic Students Association brought up this article.
Chirac declares France's commitment to Secularism. Does he reconcile it with
Zooey's thoughts on suburban sameness?

This Chirac quote, from the text: "In France, there are no rules superior to
the laws of the republic," adding that there was a need to "put limits on
the public expression of one's own characteristics, to understand others,
and to put oneself in their shoes."

Also, this subscriber comment: "The French Revolution continues to live and
reason is worshipped instead of God." Are reason and God necessarily
mutually exclusive?
