Shutting down religion altogether would mean closing all the churches, mosques, synagogues and temples, and banning religion. No one is going that far. My preference is a form of secularism meaning all govt employees refrain from showing any religious identity. This means, for example, an elementary school teacher cannot wear a burqa in her classroom. Next. I would say it is unacceptable to have one's face completely covered in public; so I would also be in favour of a burqa and niqab ban, such as in many European, and even in some majority-Muslim, countries.
