   She doesn't want them in institutions that are not religious   
   institutions - but are public-serving institutions.   
   I don't disagree with that concept.   
      
   It should be no difficulty for any Catholic, Jew or muslim woman to   
   comply with such legislation.  The only ones who might feel very   
   challenged are the muslim men who hide some very long hair beneath those   
   turbans.  Where does that long hair go?
