PARIS, Nov 27 (Reuters) - Six teenagers go on trial behind closed doors on Monday, accused of involvement in the beheading of French history teacher Samuel Paty by a suspected Islamist in 2020 in an attack that struck at the heart of the country’s secular values.

The teacher had shown his pupils cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in a class on freedom of expression, angering a number of Muslim parents. Muslims believe that any depiction of the Prophet is blasphemous.

    Cartels aren’t a religion that are trying to expand over the world.

    It is honestly, with all due respect, a very stupid comparison.

      Oh, so it’s okay to belong to a group of people whose open tenet is murdering and enslaving people, but a religion that teaches against those things, but has a few nutjobs is somehow not?

      Strong logic there. Completely free of bias. 🙄

        Who is saying that cartels are ok?

        Also… “a religion that teaches against those things”. You are really brainwashed.

          You’re excusing cartels: organizations that are absolutely and unashamedly expanding and taking over the world, simply because they aren’t a religion.

          That may not be your intended meaning, but it’s definitely connotated.

          Dogma doesn’t have to have a God to be dangerous.

      It’s just as stupid as your moronic comparison, cartel enabler. If you really cared about the damage the cartels do to the world you’d leave Mexico. We don’t want to hear your excuses.
